      I am on 4.0.1 version of recalbox, installed on RPi 3.
      I settled the option to use an external drive, were my roms and media files.
      Kodi can access the external drive, but I need to share the contents of the external drive over samba.
      Is it possible? How do I do it?

        I just added one seciton on /etc/samba/smb.conf and rename both on file:
        [recalbox]
        comment = Recalbox user data
        path = /recalbox/share
        writeable = yes
        guest ok = yes
        create mask = 0644
        directory mask = 0755
        force user = root
        veto files = /._*/.DS_Store/
        delete veto files = yes

        [kodi]
        comment = Kodi server
        path = /var/recalboxfs/
        writeable = yes
        guest ok = yes
        create mask = 0644
        directory mask = 0755
        force user = root
        veto files = /._*/.DS_Store/
        delete veto files = yes

        Now it's appears on recalbox's IP.
