As I said in previous messages I have a local virtual machine running CentOS 7 so I do not need any security. Having that in mind I have installed Samba and this is how I setup for access the remote server: [global] workgroup = WORKGROUP server string = Samba Server %v netbios name = CentOS Server security = user map to guest = bad user dns proxy = no [root] path = / browsable =yes writable = yes guest ok = yes read only = no force user = root force group = root I am able to connect as root without password but I can't chdir into a few directories like for example /var/www. The permissions for such directory are: # ls -la /var/www/ total 4 drwxr-xr-x. 4 root root 31 Aug 4 19:00 . drwxr-xr-x. 20 root root 4096 Aug 4 20:02 .. drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 6 Jul 18 11:30 cgi-bin drwxrwsr-x. 2 apache root 22 Jun 30 05:05 html Why I can't access to /var/html? What I am doing wrong?
