My experience towards CentOS

minidlna-installation

miniDLNA Server Installation (CentOS 7)
---------------------------------------
Create a temporary directory for the installation files:
mkdir ~/Downloads/minidlna

Download the binary files:
wget https://sourceforge.net/projects/minidlna/files/minidlna/1.1.5/minidlna-1.1.5_static.tar.gz

Extract the files:
tar xvf minidlna-1.1.5_static.tar.gz

Move the configuration file to /etc:
sudo mv etc/minidlna.conf /etc

Move the binary file:
sudo mv usr/sbin/minidlnad /sbin

Remove the temporary directory:
rm -rv minidlna

Create the service settings:
sudo vim /etc/systemd/system/minidlnad.service

'''
[Unit]
Description=Minidlna Daemon
After=syslog.target network.target

[Service]
Type=forking
PIDFile=/run/minidlnad.pid
ExecStart=/sbin/minidlnad -f /etc/minidlna.conf -P /run/minidlnad.pid -R
ExecStop=/bin/kill -s QUIT $MAINPID

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
'''

Firewall configuration:
sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --add-port=1900/udp
sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --add-port=8200/tcp
sudo firewall-cmd --reload

Activate at boot and start the service:
sudo systemctl enable minidlnad && sudo systemctl start minidlnad

Samba public share

Samba share from external drive (CentOS 7)
----------------------------------------------
Disable automount of usb (udisks2 (udev)) by adding a new rule:

sudo vim /etc/udev/rules.d/85-no-automount.rules
"""
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ENV{UDISKS_AUTO}="0"
"""

Modify /etc/fstab:
/dev/sdb1 /mnt/shares ext3 defaults 0 0

Just reboot the system.

sudo yum install samba cifs-utils

Firewall configuration:
sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --add-port=137/tcp
sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --add-port=138/tcp
sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --add-port=139/tcp
sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --add-port=445/tcp
sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --add-port=901/tcp
sudo firewall-cmd --reload

Change the selinux security context:
sudo chcon -R -t samba_share_t /mnt/shares/public
sudo semanage fcontext -a -t samba_share_t /mnt/shares/public

sudo systemclt enable nmb && sudo systemctl start nmb
sudo systemctl enable smb && sudo systemctl start smb
