Hi folks.

For some reason my smb.conf tests just fine, but it isn’t showing up at my Mac. The box is showing, but I can’t see anything. It gives me an error as well. All is below.

https://www.unixmen.com/install-configure-samba-server-CentOS-7/ is the setup I’m trying.

The smb.conf:

[global]
workgroup = WORKGROUP
security = user

passdb backend = tdbsam

unix charset = UTF-8
hosts allow = 127. 192.168.1.
max protocol = SMB2
security = user
map to guest = Bad User

printing = cups
printcap name = cups
load printers = no
cups options = raw

[homes]
comment = Home Directories
valid users = %S, %D%w%S
browseable = Yes
read only = No
inherit acls = Yes

[etc]
comment = RF /etc
path = /etc
public = no
writeable = yes
write list = @wheel
directory mask = 0770
create mask = 0770

[www]
comment = RF www
path = /usr/share/nginx/html
public = no
writeable = yes
write list = @wheel
directory mask = 0775
create mask = 0775

[rich~]
comment = rich~
path = home/rich
browseable = yes
writable = yes
guest ok = no
read only = no
create mask = 755

The ‘error’ says “there was a problem connecting to the server” trying to enter as “guest”. The users “rich” and “root” won’t allow me to even try those, with proper passwords.

Any advice appreciated how I can get this working. I’m looking to open remote files in BBEdit for editing on my workstation. I have full ownership of this server.

Cheers, Bee
