Configure Samba shares in CentOS

“Server OSes, such as CentOS, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, and SUSE
Linux Enterprise do not enjoy the same simplicity as does the
modern Linux desktop when it comes to issues like sharing out

impossible…in fact it’s not that much more difficult than it
is on their brethren desktop. Let’s take a look at how this is done
