 The following example is comprised of three sections: ''global'', ''private'' and ''public''. The ''global'' section below contains the master settings for the share. Be sure to replace ''CYBERTRON'' with the name of your domain and ''TELETRAN4'' with the name of your server. The "hosts allow" section allows connections from localhost and any IP address on the 192.168.0.x network, while the "hosts deny" section prevents connection from any IP extraneous to the local network. The share uses "user" based security, which will be explained in the next section. The commented lines at the end are for scanning the share using clamav, but this goes beyond the scope of this guide.

 == Configuring your System - Create network shares ==
 You may have the need to share files and folders on your Gentoo PC with other files on the network. There are two primary ways of doing this, and these methods are using nfs or samba. Samba is geared towards compatibility with Microsoft Windows, whereas nfs is an abbreviation for network file system, and has its roots in the early days of unix.

-----
+=== Windows Shares ===
 In order to share files with machines on your network running Microsoft Windows, you'll need to install and configure a Samba server. Before performing the emerge, be sure to check that you have the desired USE flags set.
