CentOS provides two mechanisms for sharing files and folders with other systems on a network. One approach is to use technology called Samba. Samba is based on Microsoft Windows Folder Sharing and allows CentOS systems to make folders accessible to Windows systems, and also to access Windows based folder shares from CentOS. This approach can also be used to share folders between other Linux and UNIX based systems as long as they too have Samba support installed and configured. This is by far the most popular approach to sharing folders. The topic of folder sharing using Samba is covered in Sharing CentOS Folders with Remote Windows Systems.
