I've gone through and used terminal to add a user...

smbpasswd -a ryan
(entered password)
smbpasswd -e ryan

this is what the share looks like in my samba.conf file

[music]
valid user = ryan
path = /mnt/music
create mode = 0777
directory mode = 777
browseable = yes
comment = music
writeable = yes

encrypt passwords is set to yes and security is set to share

there is also a homes share

[homes]
comment = Home Directories
browseable = yes
writeable = yes

The shares show up in network neighborhood but when I click on them it
tells me I don't have permission to access the share. My windows user and
password match my linux user/pass and samba user/pass. Any more
suggestions. I tried using webmin to set it up and that didn't help any.
I'm going to try and install swat after work tonight and see if that'll
help me get things straight. I think I used swat on drake before and got
things setup through that. If anybody has any suggestions as to what may
still be causing this problem please speak up.

Also, I don't have the firewall service turned on. For a brief moment it
did show my home directory and the files in it and I know I clicked no to
set up the firewall when I installed FC1. One more thing, I did remember to
restart samba after I made the changes and still nothign. "service smb
restart"

Thanks for the help

Hi Ryan
 
I sit with exactly the same problem, my users cannot access their home files but they can access other shares on the network. I also do not under stand why the users that I set with a workgroup is not listed in the /etc/groups file. it only lists the groups and not the users with those groups.
 
Please post your experiment that I can see whether I can get things straight with me aswell. Fedora changed so much from RH8 that I actually would like to go back to RH8 but my new server wont run RH8.
 
Good luck, I will only return Monday to work to continue my search.
 
Chris
