Setup read and write samba share in vagrant ubuntu

I use vagrant for daily development, now vagrant has this directory mounted when we setup vagrant at the first time. But sometimes I’d like to mount my own directory to my local machine.

This is the way I create samba share in my vagrant :

apt-get install samba samba-common

Create user for project

useradd -m user1 -d /srv/myproject

Open samba config file

vim /etc/samba/smb.conf

Put the new config below at the very bottom

[myproject]
browseable = yes
path = /srv/myproject
guest ok = yes
public = yes
read only = no
create mask = 0644
directory mask = 0755
force user = user1

Restart samba :

service samba restart
