How to use Samba in LXD?

LXD
1

I want to share the Linux folder with Windows so I try to know how to create Samba.
Maybe there is better method than Samba. Have anyone try to share file though Samba?

Samba needs a number of ports to be exposed to the LAN. You can either open up all those ports, or expose the samba container to the LAN using either macvlan or bridge.

3

Another way (other than macvlan or bridge ) is using iptables rules.

  1. Know ports for samba or default port of samba .
  2. Use iptables .

Thank a lot of suggestion.
I could share my computer’s OS ubuntu14.04 with the other window10.
How could share this container which is created by OS ubuntu 14.04 with other windows 10?

5

Is it same way in ubuntu 14.04?

6

It should be no different between versions of the container images.

I could set iptable rule prerouting to container and samba can work.
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p udp --dport 137 -j DNAT --to IP:137
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p udp --dport 138 -j DNAT --to IP:138
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 139 -j DNAT --to IP:139
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 445 -j DNAT --to IP:445

How could I let my OS ubuntu 14.04 and its container share file via samba at the same time?
When I use this iptable rule my OS ubuntu14.0 could not share the file via samba, but its container could and i user this method the other container could not use samba to share file.
Should I use the other method to achieve this target?
