First, you need to edit ''/etc/samba/smb.conf''. Use ''vi /etc/samba/smb.conf'' from the command line. With the vi command ''/public'' (with a dash, press ''n'' for next location, search for the section [public] and edit it to look like this:

<source lang="text">
[public]
comment = home root
path = /home/root
public = yes
writable = yes
printable = no
guest ok = no
</source>

In order to get network access from a Windows PC to the Beaglebone, samba needs some configuration.
Even if a user root already exists on the Beaglebone, it must be added for Samba separately:

<source lang="bash">
smbpasswd -a root
</source>

then type in a (simple) password, which of course you should remember properly.

After that, you can mount a network drive from Windows to the Beaglebone. The identification on Windows is \\beaglebone-3\public and the account that you have to use is root and your <password>. Guenter is doing that with Total Commander, using '''Network''' → '''Connect Network Drive''' ending up like this:

[[File:Networkmount1.png|Network Mount - Screenshot 1]]
[[File:Networkmount2.png|Network Mount - Screenshot 2]]
[[File:Networkmount3.png|Network Mount - Screenshot 3]]

Then, as a test, please copy a dummy file to the Beaglebone folder. I did so with the file “hello-there”. On a command window on Beaglebone, excute a ls -l and check if the group and owner are both root and not nobody:nobody.
