How to Set Up Samba File Server on Fedora Linux & Map Network Drive from Windows
Hey everyone 👋
Just finished the Samba File Sharing lab and put together a
screen recording tutorial covering the full setup from scratch.
The video walks through:
What SMB and Samba are and why they matter
Installing and configuring Samba on Fedora Linux
Firewall and SELinux configuration
Mapping the shared folder as a network drive from Windows
Proving two-way file transfer works
This is the same concept used in real enterprise file servers —
just built in our VMware home lab.
Hope it helps anyone working through this lab.
Let me know if you have any questions 🙏
