SAMBA sharing to Mac

When you configure a SAMBA server on Linux and you want to mount the resource from a Mac, remember to set the security mode to “user“, otherwise you can receive messages like this:

The operation can’t be completed because the original item for “SHARENAME” can’t be found

From the smb.conf:

# Security mode. Most people will want user level security. See
# security_level.txt for details.
security = user

If you set the security level to “share“, the Mac will not be able to mount the sharing…
