Hi all,
I'm fighting with samba on a new CentOS 5.1 install.
The goal here is to have unix/linux usernames/passwords used for the samba shares (which i'll setup using webmin, as I find it easy that way). At present, the home share and one for the company's public share are in place.
I can see the server, browsing from WinXP to \172.16.0.106, but permissions seem amiss. I should be able to read/write to a given share but it seems to be ro.
Any pointers or advice would be greatly appreciated.
My simple smb.conf file is here:
[global] netbios name = BACKUP socket options = TCP_NODELAY force directory mode = 777 unix password sync = yes workgroup = WORKGROUP force create mode = 777 os level = 20 encrypt passwords = yes security = share public = yes passdb backend = smbpasswd directory mode = 777
[homes] writeable = yes public = yes path = /home
[company data] comment = company data writeable = yes create mode = 775 path = /home/share1
Thanks in advance, -Ray
