Hi Scott, You could try to put: writable = yes in the [Shared] section. Also, does the user you are connecting with have the correct permissions to write to /u1? I have XP connecting to a samba server on FreeBSD 4.6.2, I can both read and write from my home directory. Hope you figure it out, Thanatos To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
