5 years ago You must install samba on raspbian:
pi@PiServer:~ $ sudo apt-get update
pi@PiServer:~ $ sudo apt-get upgrade
pi@PiServer:~ $ sudo apt-get install samba samba-common-bin
pi@PiServer:~ $ cd /media
pi@PiServer:/media $ sudo mkdir exchangeexchange is a folder mounted as smb-share later. (You can change the name and location if you want).
Now change the owner of the exchange folder:
pi@PiServer:/media $ sudo chown -R pi:pi /media/exchange/
and add the user pi to the smb-users:
pi@PiServer:/media $ sudo smbpasswd -a pi
New SMB password:
Retype new SMB password:
Added user pi.
Now configure samba:
pi@PiServer:/media $ cd /etc/samba
pi@PiServer:/etc/samba $ sudo nano smb.confChange the workgroup entry in global section to your Workgroup-Name. Add the following at the end of the File:
[RaspberryPi]
comment = Raspberry Pi Exchange
path = /media/exchange
writeable = yes
guest ok = noSave with CTRL o and leave the editor with CTRL x. After that restart samba:
pi@PiServer:/etc/samba $ sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
[ ok ] Restarting nmbd (via systemctl): nmbd.service.
[ ok ] Restarting smbd (via systemctl): smbd.service.
pi@PiServer:/etc/samba $In Motioneye now you can add the path to store the files under File Storage, Root directory. The files in this folder are now accessible from your network.
If you want to store the files on a permanent mounted network device (e.g. a NAS), you have to add this device to the raspbian system. To achive that do the following:
pi@PiServer:~$ sudo apt-get update
pi@PiServer:~$ sudo apt-install cif-utils
pi@PiServer:~$ sudo mkdir /media/MyNAS-Folderwhere MyNAS-Folder is the name of the folder, your NAS will be mounted later. Choose your preferred name.
Mount the folder now to your NAS:
sudo mount -t cifs -o username=USER,password=PASSWORD,vers=1.0 //<Your IP-Adress>/SMB-Network-Folder //media/MyNAS-Folder
Your-IP-Adress is the adress of your NAS, SMB-Network-Folder is the Folder on the NAS which is served to the network. Now the NAS is mounted to the Raspi-System and is accessible as storage devive for motioneye. If you want that permantely (after reboot it should be mounted again), do the following: Generate a file with name .smbcredentials in your home directory:
pi@PiServer:~$ touch .smbcredentials
pi@PiServer:~$ nano .smbcredentialswith the content:
user=<your username on NAS>
password=<your password on the NAS>Save with ctrl o und leave with ctrl x. Now edit the file system table. Careful! first make a copy of it, as wrong settings may crash the system:
pi@PiServer:~$ sudo cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.original
pi@PiServer:~$ sudo nano /etc/fstab
Add the following line at the end of the file:
//<IP-Adress of the Network-NAS>/<SMB-Network-Folder> /media/MyNAS-Folder cifs credentials=/home/pi/.smbcredentials,uid=1000,gid=1000,vers=1.0 0 0
Take care that there are no spaces between the options (after credentials) but two spaces between the entrys. The option vers=1.0 can be skipped if your NAS speaks a higher version level of samba. The entry credentials must fit your credentials-file in home directory.
After reboot the NAS-folder should be mounted permantly. You can use it as a normal storage path i motioneye (/media/MyNAS-Folder).
Hope this helps ...
