I have an established server initially created with CentOS 6.5 and updated weekly. Last week there was a massive update that I believe upgraded my server to 6.6.
I had a number of issues after the upgrade---like my firewall being turned on and blocking all inbound ports. (I have an external firewall.) I've fixed all the issues created by this upgrade except for one.
I have a number of samba shares on this server used by some WinXP boxes on my network and two other linux (Fedora) workstations. Since the upgrade, guest/nobody write access no longer works. The smb.conf file is unchanged.
The config file below has been unchanged since my initial installation. Anyone know how I can restore guest write access? Guest can read, but not write to the share.
I don't see anything obvious. The first thing I would do is to take a look at 'smbstatus' while a guest user is logged on and make sure it is connecting as the user you expect.
It is.
