lucapisciotta/samba repository overview

⁠lucapisciotta/samba

Samba⁠ is the standard Windows interoperability suite of programs for Linux and Unix. With this image you will have a simple network share reachable from Windows, OSX and Linux machines.

The image is based on the official ubuntu:21.04 and the offical samba package that you can find in the ubuntu repository.

⁠Supported architectures

This image supports different architecture: linux/amd64, linux/arm64, linux/arm/v7.

⁠Application Setup

The setup is more than simple, you can simply run the docker and reach it using its IP on the standard smb port (445). Here you can find a simple network share and you can put your files here to test it but take in mind that you need to define a volume to mantain them when container stops.

⁠Usage

Here are some example snippets to help you get started creating a container.

docker-compose

---
version: '3.8'
services:
    samba:
        image: lucapisciotta/samba
        container_name: samba
        environment:
            - TZ=Europe/Rome
        volumes:
            - /path/to/your/local/files/:/media/storage
            - /path/to/your/custom/smb.conf:/etc/samba  # Optional
        ports:
            - 445:445
        restart: unless-stopped

docker-cli

docker run -d \
    --name=samba \
    -p 445:445 \
    -p 139:139 \
    -v /path/to/your/local/files/:/media/storage \
    --restart unless-stopped \
    lucapisciotta/samba

⁠Parameters

Container images are configured using parameters passed at runtime (such as those above). These parameters are separated by a colon and indicate : respectively. For example, -p 8080:80 would expose port 80 from inside the container to be accessible from the host's IP on port 8080 outside the container.
