RE: [PLUG] Samba problems
|
Okay, scratch the 2nd half of that. I just noticed that read only was
not set in smb.conf and setting it to = no fixed the read only problem.
I still don't know what the export means, and since I like to at least
generally understand what I'm doing I'd appreciate some more help there.

I finally have had time to work on this again.
Using the smbpasswd command got me a step forward, but I'm not sure what
you mean by export in smb.conf (so I'm assuming I'm not). I can now
open the share from my iBook and sometimes my WinXP Pro desktop, but I
can't write files. I'm assuming this is related to the part about
export that I don't get, but what do I know.

Have you added your user to the Samba database? smbpasswd -a username
and configured the export in smb.conf?

Right so those other details are kind of useful...
Distro: SuSE 9.1
from ps:
root 7464 0.0 0.5 8744 2704 ? Ss Aug10 0:00
/usr/sbin/smbd -D -s /etc/samba/smb.conf
I have tried to connect both from my XP Pro desktop, and OS X iBook.
Both have failed utterly.
I haven't thought to look in the logs *kicking-self*. I don't have time
now, but thanks for reminding me I'll get to that soon.

Do you see samba actually running in ps output? What distro is this?
Is there anything releveant in /var/log/syslog or
/var/log/samba/log.{s,n}mbd ? How are you trying to connect? Any other
relevant info would be great.
