I checked man chmod but couldn't find out what the modes you suggested I use mean. What are the create mask and directory mask functions? What are modes 0660 and 0750? And from one of your later emails (Samba Share - Access Denied) what does "chmod g+s /some directory do? Thanks again, Jerome
You have changed this to make the home directory browsable. When a client first browses a server, it is done as nobody. You have not logged on to the server yet. The server has no way to tell who you are. You also are allowing guest access. Try the following:
[homes] comment = Home Directories valid users = %S writable = Yes create mask = 0660 directory mask = 0770 browseable = No
