Samba docker container

What is Samba?

Since 1992, Samba has provided secure, stable and fast file and print services for all clients using the SMB/CIFS protocol, such as all versions of DOS and Windows, OS/2, Linux and many others.

How to use this image

By default there are no shares configured, additional ones can be added.

Hosting a Samba instance

sudo docker run -p 139:139 -p 445:445 -d dperson/samba

OR set local storage:

sudo docker run --name samba -p 139:139 -p 445:445 \
            -v /path/to/directory:/mount \
            -d dperson/samba

Configuration

sudo docker run -it --rm dperson/samba -h
Usage: samba.sh [-opt] [command]
Options (fields in '[]' are optional, '<>' are required):
    -h          This help
    -i "<path>" Import smbpassword
                required arg: "<path>" - full file path in container to import
    -s "<name;/path>[;browse;readonly;guest;users]" Configure a share
                required arg: "<name>;<comment>;</path>"
                <name> is how it's called for clients
                <path> path to share
                [browseable] default:'yes' or 'no'
                [readonly] default:'yes' or 'no'
                [guest] allowed default:'yes' or 'no'
                [users] allowed default:'all' or list of allowed users
    -t ""       Configure timezone
                possible arg: "[timezone]" - zoneinfo timezone for container
    -u "<username;password>"       Add a user
                required arg: "<username>;<passwd>"
                <username> for user
                <password> for user

The 'command' (if provided and valid) will be run instead of samba

ENVIROMENT VARIABLES (only available with docker run)

TIMEZONE - As above, set a zoneinfo timezone, IE EST5EDT

Examples

Start an instance and set the timezone:

Any of the commands can be run at creation with docker run or later with docker exec samba.sh (as of version 1.3 of docker).

sudo docker run -p 139:139 -p 445:445 -d dperson/samba -t EST5EDT

Will get you the same settings as

sudo docker run --name samba -p 139:139 -p 445:445 -d dperson/samba
sudo docker exec samba samba.sh -t EST5EDT ls -AlF /etc/localtime
sudo docker restart samba

Start an instance creating users and shares:

sudo docker run -p 139:139 -p 445:445 -d dperson/samba \
            -u "example1;badpass" \
            -u "example2;badpass" \
            -s "public;/share" \
            -s "users;/srv;no;no;no;example1,example2" \
            -s "example1 private;/example1;no;no;no;example1" \
            -s "example2 private;/example2;no;no;no;example2"
