Raspberry Pi Samba Share

My RPi is the brain of my ARK-AV-01 robot. As I currently am in the programming phase, I found myself programming it from the command line. I wanted something easier, with no login/password, so I activated samba with the following samba.conf file:

[global]
workgroup = mygroup
interfaces = wlan
bind interfaces only = yes
server string = Arkadian's ARK-AV-01
security = share
guest account = nobody
log file = /var/log/samba.%m

[Robot]
comment = Robot Control Center
path = /robot/
available = yes
browseable = yes
public = yes
writable = yes
read only = no
guest ok = yes

The above configuration allows you to connect to the /robot/ folder from any windows or linux machine.

I had to also run the following commands

sudo chown nobody /robot

and

sudo chmod 777 /robot -R

to ensure the folder is owned by user nobody and is writable.

then, just restart the samba service:

sudo service samba restart

And now you can mount the folder /robot to your windows or linux machine!
if everything works ok, make sure to add samba to the startup script:

sudo update-rc.d samba defaults
