Fix Recommendation

Edit the smb.conf file and set the hosts option to permit only authorized hosts to access Samba.

Check Contents

Examine the smb.conf file. Default locations for this file include /etc, /etc/sfw, /etc/samba, and /etc/sfw/samba. If the system has Samba installed in non-standard locations, also check the smb.conf in those locations.

Procedure:
# more /etc/smb.conf /etc/sfw/smb.conf /etc/samba/smb.conf /etc/sfw/samba/smb.conf

If the hosts option is not present to restrict access to a list of authorized hosts and networks, this is a finding.
