[Samba] Samba in a dual boot environment
Hello is it possible to setup a Samba share directory in a Windows/Linux dual boot environment where it can be accessed regardless of which OS is booted?

Yes I do the same on my laptop and I dual boot windows 11 Workstation and Fedora 41 to access a Samba share (Via SAMBA AD DC). Sort of curious why you would think it would NOT work?

If I understand correctly you want to have one computer that either boots Linux or Windows. No matter what OS is running other computers need to access the a share on that computer correct? If yes. It is possible but not strait forward and I need you to answer a few questions. * Is this in an AD environment and is the computer joined to the AD? * Do you need complex ACLs on the share? * Should the share always be reachable with the same address/name? With those answers we can go forward.
