Can't get write access to samba shares...

Can't get write access to samba shares...

Post by Dual » Sun, 31 Dec 1899 09:00:00



Already tried everything I could come up with , but still can't get
write access to my samba share: (using RH6.2 and its build in samba
V2.0.6)

-opening up guest with write access
-added user root to smbpasswd , using same linux passwd
-added root to the write list

From windows machines I can get into the share as guest , root or some
other user , all read-only:-((

root logged on the linux console has full access , so I guess
directory permissions can't be the problem.

Here's my current smb.conf , generated using swat

[global]
        workgroup = CRONVILLE
        netbios name = RH62
        server string = Samba Server
        interfaces = eth1 127.0.0.1
        bind interfaces only = Yes
        encrypt passwords = Yes
        map to guest = Bad User
        null passwords = Yes
        log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
        max log size = 50
        socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
        os level = 65
        preferred master = Yes
        dns proxy = No
        write list = root

[mpeg]
        comment = MP3 files
        path = /home/mpeg
        read only = No
        guest ok = Yes

Any hints welcome

just added
         writable = Yes
using a text editor to get things working.
Was it me , or was it SWAT misconfiguring things??

1. SAMBA - No write access to shares!

I have my Win98 PC and Linux connected by Samba and I am able to view
the shares I have setup, but I don't have write access. How do I get
write access?

Before you answer a few notes:

I have Linux dual booting with Win2k and the two partitions for Win2k
are C and D and are Fat32. Linux is on its own partition.

When I installed Linux I called these drives /dosc and /dosd and these
are the drives I want to be able to access from Win98.

The following is the sections of my smb.conf file to map these drives.

                   [C]
                      comment = C Drive
                      path = /dosc
                      valid users = Name
                      public = no
                      read only = no
                      writeable = yes
                      printable = no
                      create mask = 0765

                   [D]
                      comment = D Drive
                      path = /dosd
                      valid users =Name
                      public = no
                      read only = no
                      writeable = yes
                      printable = no
                      create mask = 0765

Given this information, how can I get write access to these drives
from Win98?
