There are multiple ways to share files without using Samba, such as using FTP, NFS, SSH, or HTTP. Here are the basic steps to set up file sharing using each of these methods:
FTP:
Install an FTP server software, such as vsftpd or Pure-FTPd, using the appropriate package manager for your operating system.
Configure the FTP server software to allow anonymous or authenticated access, specify the shared directory, and set up any required permissions and security settings.
Use an FTP client software on the client machine to connect to the FTP server, navigate to the shared directory, and upload or download files as required.
NFS:
Install the NFS server software and client tools, such as nfs-utils or nfs-kernel-server, using the appropriate package manager for your operating system.
Configure the NFS server to export the shared directory and set up the required permissions and security settings.
Mount the exported directory on the client machine using the mount command, specifying the NFS server IP address and shared directory location.
SSH:
Enable SSH access on both the server and client machines, if not already enabled.
Use the scp command to securely transfer files between the server and client machines, specifying the source and destination file paths, and using the appropriate SSH user and authentication method.
HTTP:
Install an HTTP server software, such as Apache or Nginx, using the appropriate package manager for your operating system.
Configure the HTTP server to serve files from the shared directory and set up the required permissions and security settings.
Use a web browser on the client machine to connect to the HTTP server's IP address or hostname, navigate to the shared directory URL, and download or upload files as required.
Note that the specific steps and commands may vary depending on the operating system and software being used, and additional configuration and security settings may be required to ensure safe and secure file sharing.
