How to Add User to Samba Server

There are two steps to creating a user. First we'll run the smbpasswd utility to create a samba password for the user.

sudo smbpasswd -a username

Next, we'll add that username to the smbusers file.

sudo gedit /etc/samba/smbusers

Add in the following line, substituting the username with the one you want to give access to. The format is = "". You can use a different samba user name to map to an ubuntu account, but that's not really necessary right now.

username = "username"

Now you can create samba shares and give access to the users that you listed here

This configuration can be done via the web console until ESB 4.8.1 release, but this has been removed from the ESB 4.9.0. Even though this feature isn't provided by the ESB web console itself same functionality can be achieved by the new WSO2 Dev Studio .

The previous version of our WSO2 ESB, version 4.8.1, only supported “ server ” and “ user agent ” header fields to preserve with, but with the new ESB 4.9.0, we’ve introduced a new new property ( http.headers.preserve ) for the passthru ( repository/conf/ passthru-http.properties ) and Nhttp( repository/conf/ nhttp.properties ) transporters to preserve more HTTP headers.

User can create their own concrete handlers which is executing in the synapse layer. Main intention of this blog post is to explain how to write synapse handler and explain basic theoretical background. 1. What is the handler? Handlers are basically talking with the chain of responsibility pattern. Chain of responsibility allows a number of classes to attempt to handle a request independently of any other object along the chain. Once the request is handled, it completes it's journey through the chain.
