SAMBA not working correctly

Post Body

Hi All,

I'm pretty new to eOS, but am a long-time Linux user. I'm struggling to get SAMBA working on my machine. Funny thing is that it was working just fine until this morning, restarted my machine, and now nothing.

I've tried removing it completely from the machine, including deleting the conf file, and starting completely from scratch, but still no dice.

This is the guide that I followed first time around, and again now.

https://www.fosslinux.com/8703/how-to-setup-samba-file-sharing-server-on-ubuntu.htm

Here is my current conf file.

[global]
   workgroup = WORKGROUP
   server string = Samba Server %v
   netbios name = kaptein
   security = user

[2TB]
   comment = Series
   path = /mnt/469b571b-afe7-43a4-b618-2d2cfb40766a/
   writable = yes
   guest ok = yes
   read only = no
   force user = nobody

I can see the share on the computer itself, but no other device on the network can see it.

Any help would be appreciated.
