On the permissions, that is a good question.
The folder I'm sharing is my own and I'm using the same username. I selected it from the list in Webmin.
I have Browseable=yes, hosts to allow=all, possible users=kai, read/write users=kai, guest access=yes. I think one needs to get back to basics....
a) Can you browse the workgroup? i.e can you see all the machines in the workgroup, from all of the machines which are supposed to be in the workgroup?
I'll try it when I get back home. Right now I'm at work and the laptop is on the domain. (It isn't part of the domain, just connected.)
BTW SWAT does have control of the local samba server functions and will shutdown and restart the samba server, and includes access to extensive documentation and information on server status.
Use...
to access SWAT. (Usually the root username and password will be required).
SWAT? I think that was a television show I watched in the '70s.
According to YaST/SMART the only thing with swat is myspell-swati.
I'll search on the intraweb...
LOL SWAT is part of the standard samba distribution, and for some unknown reason it is not picked in as being there in YaST..., but if you type man swap you will get a some basic info.. BTW Reading the Howto for Samba 3 as recommended elsewhere is a very good idea... You will need to enable swat via xinetd in YaST before you can use it on a regular basis. The YAST samba server configuration support used to be pretty basic, and had some nasty habits (like stripping out legitimate options it did not know about) and I have not used it for years. It may be better now but it has usually given me more problems than it solved in the past. - -- ============================================================================== I have always wished that my computer would be as easy to use as my telephone.
