The first time you run this tool, you are asked in which protocol you are interesting in. Check one or both of the following:
nfs. If you wish that you users can share files with other users using UNIX systems (like GNU/Linux);
smb. If you wish that you users can share files with other users using Windows systems.
![]() | By default both protocols are authorized. If you wish a protocol not to be available make sure the packages nfs or samba are not installed. |
Then, three different options are available:
No sharing. Prevent users from sharing data with others.
Allow all users. All users without distinctions are allowed to share data with others.
Custom. By choosing this option, only users in the fileshare group are allowed to share data. Of course, you then need to add allowed people to this group (see Managing Users on Your System).
