Dear Community,

I have been setting up samba file server in centos 7 and confirmed Loaded services file OK using testparm command but whenever try to open from windows 7 than shares folders are not visible. I tried to disable selinux and firewall but no luck. Please help me to fix out the issue. below is my smb.conf

[global]
unix charset = UTF-8
dos charset = CP932
workgroup = MY_Domain_Name
max protocol = SMB2
security = user
map to guest = Bad User
passdb backend = tdbsam

[Public share]
path = /samba/Public_share
writable = yes
browsable = yes
guest ok = yes
guest only = yes
create mode = 0777


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#testparm
Load smb config files from /etc/samba/smb.conf
rlimit_max: increasing rlimit_max (1024) to minimum Windows limit (16384)
Processing section "[Public share]"
Loaded services file OK.
Server role: ROLE_STANDALONE

Issue has been resolved. It is not visible but whenever I mapped as network drive the folder mapped and available.
