Samba for Docker Containers

Easy to use samba file share server for docker containers.

Getting Container Image

For the installation you can use docker pull command to get samba container

docker pull ahmetozer/samba

If you want to build in your computer you can use git and docker build

git clone [email protected]:AhmetOZER/docker-samba.git

docker build -t samba .

---

Basic Run

It is easy to use and configure with automated script.

docker run -it ahmetozer/samba

Accessing container network

There is a few option at this point. First one is 1 docker container and share with docker-proxy with -p argumant.

docker run -it -p 445:445 ahmetozer/samba 

Second one is without port share. Each docker container has a own static IP address and it is accessible only local network.

docker run -it ahmetozer/samba --ip 172.17.0.80

Share Folders With Samba Container

If you want to share outside of folder you can use -v argumant while creating docker. -v has a ":" to bind local and container folder. Before the ":" it's your server directory, after the ":" it's your container directory For example your website files at /var/www directory and you want to share your web folder with samba.

server:~# docker run -it -v/var/www:/share/web ahmetozer/samba
