Example

To make some RadioOS folder available through SMB service follow these steps:

  • create user:
/ip smb user add read-only=no name=mtuser password=mtpasswd 
  • add shared folder
/ip smb share add name=backup
  • enable SMB service
/ip smb set enabled=yes

Now check for results:

  • Check general service settings:


/ip smb print


[admin@CableFree] /ip smb> print 
      enabled: yes
       domain: MSHOME
      comment: CableFreeSMB
 allow-guests: yes
   interfaces: all
  • SMB user settings:
/ip smb users print


[admin@CableFree] /ip smb> users print 
Flags: * - default, X - disabled 
#    NAME         PASSWORD      READ-ONLY
0 *  guest                      yes 
1    mtuser       mtpasswd      no
  • And finally SMB shares settings:
/ip smb shares print


[admin@CableFree] /ip smb> shares print

Flags: X - disabled, I - inactive, * - default 
#    NAME                   DIRECTORY        MAX-SESSIONS
0  * ;;; default share
     pub                   /pub              10
1    backup                /backup           10

Now additional configuration changes can be done, like disabling default user and share etc.
