I have installed Ubuntu Server 12.10 and during the install created a user for myself ben
, I now wish to add a second user bill
.
I have an external drive that I have mounted to /media/storage
and created a shared folder called Share
, the owner of the folder is ben:ben
, how do I grant bill
access to the folder? I don't want to put him in the group ben
.
Once setup, I need to configure Samba & NFS, here is my Samba configuration
[Share]
path = /media/storage/Share
read only = no
public = yes
writeable = yes
force user = ben
How do I give both bill
and ben
access to the share via Samba?
Thank you.
