Hi All, Having a few issues with a samba share that i cannot work out...
Basically i can access a share called "shared" on my samba server but nobody else can do it on their machines, even though they are part of the same group and that group has access to the share - otherwise i myself wouldnt be able to access it... The other users seem to be authenticating, because they can see their home directory and write/read to it/from it... here is the smb.conf: [global] server string = Samba Server %v security = user map to guest = bad user workgroup = WG1 load printers = yes log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd dns proxy = no printcap name = cups encrypt passwords = yes wins support = true max log size = 50 printer admin = @adm socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 printing = cups unix password sync = yes netbios name = woja os level = 20 [homes] comment = Home Directories browseable = no writable = yes [shared] writeable = yes valid users = @shared user = @shared path = /mnt/shared comment = shared folder /mnt/shared is owned by the group "shared" and all have read write permissions recursively.. Each time i try to browse the "shared" share on one of the other workstations, this appears in the appropriate log file: [2003/11/19 14:23:45, 0] smbd/service.c:make_connection(599) compaq (192.168.1.102) Can't change directory to /mnt/shared (Permission denied) [2003/11/19 14:23:45, 0] smbd/service.c:make_connection(599) compaq (192.168.1.102) Can't change directory to /mnt/shared (Permission denied) where else can their permission be denied ??? it doesnt make sense...
