Symlink Your Samba Shares

written by Jerod on July 23rd, 2008 @ 04:35 PM

Lets face it, oftentimes a symbolic link is just the quickest/easiest solution to the task at hand.

To configure Samba to allow symlinking directories/files into your shared directories, add the following three lines to the global section of smb.conf:

   1  follow symlinks = yes
   2  wide symlinks = yes
   3  unix extensions = no

Easy peasy lemon squeezy.
