Create a folder for the share
mkdir /srv/samba/SharedMedia

 If nano is not installed, we can install it with the following command. We are going to need it to edit the config file later. sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install nano Install Samba
sudo apt install samba nano /etc/samba/smb.conf

[share]
    comment = Ubuntu File Server Share
    path = /srv/samba/share
    browsable = yes
    guest ok = yes
    read only = no
    create mask = 0755

sudo mkdir -p /srv/samba/SharedMedia
sudo chown nobody:nogroup /srv/samba/SharedMedia/
