LE 9.2.8 on a Pi3: changing the samba shares

  • Evening

    So I am new to LE and only know the very basics of Linux. I have setup my Pi3 with LE to act as a local media player for the TV. I went with 9.2.8 because I need H.265 playback.

    The first issue I ran into was the password complexity issue, as in LE dosent appear to like symbols or uppercase. The second issue I ran into is I'm an not a fan of the Pi/LE sharing a bunch of its local folders (see attached), I actually only need to share one (Videos).

    Is the file I need to edit "/etc/samba/smb.conf" or more likely "/Configfiles/samba.conf.sample" and I save the latter as "samba.conf" in the 'Configfiles' folder and then reboot the pi..?

    many thanks.
