First of all Samba is only switched on when Dev Mode is on (see the /dev UI) or when switched ON in the Settings UI. Then there are two modes of operation Read-Only and Read/Write. Dev Mode always uses Read/Write and this overrides any settings made in the Settings UI.
Read-Only mode is designed to share your music library on your network with other devices (like an additional RuneAudio player). It then acts like a simple NAS.
Read/Write mode is designed for RuneAudio system development. It can also be used to copy music over the network to your to RuneAudio USB-disk, but it is very slow!
The configuration files for Samba are /etc/samba/smb-prod.conf (Read-Only) and /etc/samba/smb-dev.conf (Read/Write). When Samba is switched ON in Read/Write mode these configuration files are available via a Samba share and can be modified from your PC. The configuration files contain more detailed documentation.
Default access for Read-Only mode:
MusicStoreNAS (/mnt/MPD/NAS) – Your NAS/Network Mounts devices
MusicStoreUSB (/mnt/MPD/USB) – Your USB devices
MusicStoreLocalStorage (/mnt/MPD/LocalStorage) – Your MPD storage on the SD-Card
MusicStoreWebradio (/mnt/MPD/Webradio) – Your Webradios
Default access for Read/Write mode:
MusicStoreNAS (/mnt/MPD/NAS) – Your NAS/Network Mounts devices
MusicStoreUSB (/mnt/MPD/USB) – Your USB devices
MusicStoreLocalStorage (/mnt/MPD/LocalStorage) – Your MPD storage on the SD-Card
MusicStoreWebradio (/mnt/MPD/Webradio) – Your Webradios
SambaConfig (/etc/samba/) - Your Samba configuration files
mpd (/var/lib/mpd/) – Your MPD configuration file
www (/var/www/) – For UI development
etc (/etc) – Your Linux configuration files
If you try modifying the Samba configuration and screw it up, it can be reset via an option in the /dev UI.
