Samba Server For Mac Os
These users and passwords will be used when a user attempts to log onto a Samba share from the Mac OS X machine. To add a Samba user you will run (on the Linux machine as root) the smbpasswd command. In Mac OS X Server 10.2 or later, make sure the user is set up for Basic authentication, not Password Server authentication. When you've finished configuring Windows Services, click the Save button, then click the Windows icon in Server Settings, and select Start Windows Services. This starts the Samba daemons, enabling access from SMB clients. Using Samba takes you from basic installation and configuration - on both the client and server side, for a wide range of systems - to subtle details of security, cross-platform compatibility, and resource discovery that make the difference between whether users see the folder they expect or a.
We have file perm issues with our SAN. Basically our SAN doesnt like SMB 2 from our Macs, so we use SMB 1 (slower, but less corrupty...). We are moving away from this SAN shortly though.
I ensure this command is ran on all of our clients (either on the base image, deployment workflow or sent our via ARD terminal command)
To do so, ADmit Mac creates a file stored on a Windows share within the domain to hold all the MCX user information that would normally be stored in an Open Directory domain hosted by Mac OS X Server.
sudo sh -c 'echo '[default]' >> /etc/nsmb.conf; echo 'smb_neg=smb2_only' >> /etc/nsmb.conf'

this forces SMB2 on the client
you can then view the share connection with this command:
smbutil statshares -a
which shows what flavour of SMB is being used.
