RE: [Samba] Path issues in share name
You are 100% correct on this. After banging my head against the wall for a couple of hours I thought of SELinux also and disabled it. After that it worked with no errors. I'm still surprised that people haven't run across that error more. Google didn't return anything intelligent at all, guess I'll put it on my blog to help others.

You probably have SELinux enabled, and didn't adjust the Samba policy to allow access to that directory. The easy workaround is to disable SELinux or put it in permissive mode. The correct solution is to change the policy and/or the security context for /home/samba. Please submit a bug report at bugzilla.redhat.com against the selinux-policy-targeted component. Unfortunatly, it's impossible to create a SELinux policy for Samba that will work for all configurations out of the box, because the configuration for Samba is so site-specific. -- JF -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
