I want to configure Linux Samba 4.0.9 for providing read-only access to directory content (symlinks to files from other locations) in user & password less way. Basically any LAN user should have access to content without any user/pass questions. I have following smb.conf:
[global]
load printers = no
guest account = guest
name resolve order = lmhosts host wins bcast
passwd chat = *Enter\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n *Retype\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n .
socket options = TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY SO_RCVBUF=65536 SO_SNDBUF=65536
preserve case = yes
obey pam restrictions = yes
encrypt passwords = true
passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
dns proxy = no
printing = bsd
server string = Home Server
invalid users =
unix password sync = false
workgroup = Home-Server
log level = 2
syslog only = yes
os level = 20
printcap name = /dev/null
disable spoolss = yes
syslog = 2
security = user
map to guest = Bad User
panic action = /usr/share/samba/panic-action %d
short preserve case = yes
max log size = 1000
unix extensions = no
interfaces = lo lan0
bind interfaces only = yes
follow symlinks = yes
wide symlinks = yes
[tv]
comment = Myth Television
available = yes
browsable = yes
public = yes
writeable = no
path = /myth/tv/pretty
[root]
comment = Root FS
path = /
valid users = root
force user = root
force group = root
admin users = root
writeable = Yes
Above config gives me user/pass less access to [tv] - but attempt to access symlink gives me "Permission denied". Exactly the same symlink is working OK for [root] so I think issue is related to user/pass less access mode (where user/pass is bad and Samba is using 'map to guest = Bad User' directive). May somebody hint me about proper config? Thx in advance
