| I've searched every archive and read the documentation and I still can not figure out how to do this. | | I've recently installed Debian 3.0 (woody) on a box and have setup Samba on it. I can see it from my WinXP box just | fine and I have a user on the Debian box that's the same as my user name and PW on the WinXP box. I can read/write and | do everything from my 'Home' share automatically setup by samba and that's working just fine. | | Where I am dropping the ball is in creating another share that I as normal user can write to. I do my web page work | on my WinXP system and want to share the /var/www directory so that I can directly open my php and html files with my | editor on the WinXP system and not have to maintain two copies or more, elsewhere and FTP them back and forth. | | I've setup the share using the examples I've found on the net and I can see the share and even read the files there, | but I can not write to them. | | The /var/www directory is owned by group www-data, of which my normal user on the Debian machine is a member of. | | I'm completely stuck here, can anyone point me in the write [get it? ;-)] direction so that I can read and write to | that shared | dir with my WinXP box? | | Thanks in advance | Steve | | -- | To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the | instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba first check /var/www rights, might help -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
