I am using below to allow root user to have full access to the samba shared by entering the password, however, it showing not accessible. What I want is that to the Website share the root user should full access and others shouldn't (no guest)

log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m

@ajcg the share works, I only want root should have access to Website shared folder. I don't have problem in sharing, it is only the website shared folder which I want to be secured and accessed through root user only with password.

It's not clear. To protect the folder /var/www/html/folder_to_website you only need to put a passwd in apache or nginx, etc, (from 'root' if you only want 'root' access). Example: htpasswd -c /etc/apache2/.htpasswd $USER && apache2ctl configtest. And if you want to share the same folder in samba is for other users to have access to it, then only put which users will have access permission (valid users = foo or admin users = root ....) and set chmod / chown -R root:root /path_to_ folder
