Samba Cookbook
Installs and configures Samba client or server.
Requirements
Platforms
- Debian / Ubuntu derivatives
- RedHat and derivatives
If you would like support for your preferred platform. Please think about creating a Vagrant Box and adding test platforms
Chef
- Chef 12.1+
Cookbooks
- none
Known Limitations
- Does not (yet) integrate with LDAP/AD.
- Uses plaintext passwords for the user resource to create the SMB users if the password backend is tdbsam or smbpasswd. See below under usage.
Recipes
client
Installs smbclient to provide access to SMB shares.
server
Sets up a Samba server. See below for more information on defaults.
Resources
User
This cookbook includes a resource/provider for managing samba users with the smbpasswd program.
samba_user 'jtimberman' do password 'plaintextpassword' comment 'user_name_comment' home '/home/jtimberman' shell '/bin/zsh' end
This resource can only create, enable or delete the user. It only supports setting the user's initial password. It assumes a password db backend that utilizes the smbpasswd program.
This will not enforce the password to be set to the value specified. Meaning, if the local user changes their password with smbpasswd
, the recipe will not reset it. This may be changed in a future version of this cookbook.
Server
samba_server 'samba server' do workgroup # The SMB workgroup to use, default "SAMBA". interfaces # Interfaces to listen on, default "lo 127.0.0.1". hosts_allow # Allowed hosts/networks, default "127.0.0.0/8". bind_interfaces_only # Limit interfaces to serve SMB, default "no" load_printers # Whether to load printers, default "no". passdb_backend # Which password backend to use, default "tdbsam". dns_proxy # Whether to search NetBIOS names through DNS, default "no". security # Samba security mode, default "user". map_to_guest # What Samba should do with logins that don't match Unix users, default "Bad User". socket_options # Socket options, default "`TCP_NODELAY`" config_file # Location of Samba configuration, see resource for platform default log_dir # Location of Samba logs, see resource for platform default options # list of additional options, e.g. 'unix charset' => 'UTF8'. end
Share
samba_share 'Share Name' do comment guest_ok # yes, no printable # yes, no write_list # An array of Unix users create_mask # e.g. 0644 directory_mask # e.g. 0700 end
Usage
The samba::default
recipe includes samba::client
, which simply installs smbclient package.
Create a cookbook with the server
, user
& share
resources as if you were using any other Chef resource.
For examples see the test/fixtures/cookbooks/test
directory.
Unfortunately, smbpasswd does not take a hashed password as an argument - the password is echoed and piped to the smbpasswd program. This is a limitation of Samba.
