"Enable SMB service":
This will enable SMB service for given share.

Functions below allow you to change the SMB protocol settings for this share. To limit access to read-only, make sure the Read-only box is checked. Uncheck the Visible box to hide the share from the browse list. Select Guest to allow anonymous access to the share. Select Users with password to enforce user authentication.

Read only
This option allows you to configure read-only access to the share.

Visible
This option will make the share visible

Handling large directories
This option allows you to significantly speed up file listing. The prerequisite is to convert all file and directory names to lower or upper case exclusively. Please select your preferred choice below.

Inherit owner
The ownership of new files and directories is normally governed by effective uid of the connected user. If this option is checked, the ownership for new files and directories is taken from the ownership of the parent directory. Common scenarios where this behavior is useful is in implementing drop-boxes where users can create and edit files but not delete them.

Inherit permissions
If this option is checked, new directories inherit the mode of the parent directory and new files inherit their read/write permissions from the parent directory. This option can be particularly useful on large systems with many users to allow a single [homes] share to be used flexibly by each user.

Map ACL inherit
This option controls whether SAMBA will attempt to map the 'inherit' and 'protected' access control entry flags stored in Windows ACLs into an extended attribute. This option allows the Windows ACL editor to correctly use inheritance with the Samba POSIX ACL mapping code.
