This is probably extremely simple; I'm just not getting it.
I have a linux fileserver at home, and I've set up my home directory as a samba share so my wife can get at my music and pictures that I keep there, and mapped it as a drive letter on her machine. I've symlinked a few other folders into my home directory (other family member's home directories, etc) so that she can get to them all in one place - as far as she's concerned it's just 'J:/bobs_stuff' even though it's really more complicated than that. She can browse those folders fine, but does not have write privileges. I've got all the folders set to 775 - and all of the users are in the 'family' group, so it should work (it works via SSH). She has write access in my home directory - the 'root' as it shows up on her end. I have writable = on and createmask = 777 in smb.conf, so I don't know why it's not being passed to the linked directories. Any suggestions on how I can get it to work? - Justin
