Setting up samba share on my home network

Secure shell into file server.

Install samba if not already present:

sudo apt-get install samba

Create samba password with :

sudo smbpasswd -a YOUR_USERNAME

Configuring the share:

sudo nano /etc/samba/smb.conf
# /etc/samba/smb.conf

[media] 
path = /home/YOUR_USERNAME/Share 
available = yes 
valid users = YOUR_USERNAME 
read only = no 
browsable = yes 
public = yes 
writable = yes

Restart samba:

sudo restart smbd

Starting to implement some css flexbox into my site. At first I was going to completely restart my site’s styling, but instead I opted to checkpoint it tonight at ‘v1’. Then any new changes become ‘v2’, which will change over time.

Bringing out the best in people

So I managed to complete the Birmingham half-marathon in 2 hours and 17 minutes. One of the things that has been imprinted on my memory is how the day seemed to bring out the best in all people.People all along the 13.1 mile route were handing out sweets, water, and shouts of encouragement directed at specific people – whether they were friends or not. Countless times I had people cheering me on from my name on my runners number.It makes all the difference.I especially found it great how even when running through areas of Birmingham that were less desirable – places where the people may normally be feared – had just the same encouragement and friendliness.
