Hi...ok ok..I have this simple simple question. I have setup a Samba server on a Linux machine. And on the /etc/smb.conf file I configured a directory /home/public as a shared directory like this:

[public] comment = Public Stuff path = /home/public read only = No guest ok = Yes

I can see the directory from the W98 clients I can access it and I can read the files in there...but (<--always this but) I don't have write access to it. Any parameter I should include????

have you created user accounts and passwords on the linux box for all you win clients , use ther loging and passwords for the linux account , and give them write permissions as well.

There is also a setting in samba that will give every one write permission by setting it in the swmb file. This is handy if more tha one user need to use the same directory and use diffrent machines (dif loging and passsword) or just chmod 777 the whole directory.

This is not true, Guest access don't need that we make an account for every user in our Linux machine. Have the user nobody access to write in /home/public ??? If not, try to force a guest access. bye -- ---------------- Simeó Reig simeo@tinet.org Barcelona (SPAIN) ----------------- -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
