Hi,

 I have setup a linux shared directory using Samba. From windows XP, I can
see the shared directory, browse it, read files from it; however, I can't
write to it. I have changed the ownership of the shared directory in linux
to "nobody", changed the group to "nobody", and chmod it 777.

I have looked at threads for similar problems, but I can't get my problem
solved. The error that I am getting is: "Access denied. Make sure the disk
is not full, or write-protected".  This is my smb.conf contents:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Samba config file
# from 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1)
# Date: 2007/05/23 23:07:05

[global]
   netbios name = RAAD3
   server string = Samba Server
   log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
   max log size = 50
   dns proxy = No
   security = user
   wins support = Yes
   ldap ssl = no
   cups options = raw

[homes]
   comment = Home Directories
   read only = No
   browseable = No

[printers]
   comment = All Printers
   path = /var/spool/samba
   printable = Yes
   browseable = No

[www]
   comment = webserver
   path = /var/www/html
   valid users = chris
   read only = No
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


I've spent alot of time on this, and I have tried all sort of things with no
luck. Please advise if you have any idea on why I can't copy/write from
windows to the liunx shared directory.

"chris" is the user on the windows machine as well as on linux. For some
reason, I never get prompted for the samba username and passwd to
authenticate the access.


Thanks,

Talal
