Ok, Samba is up and running. I can see the share I set up. However, I
can not write to it. What I'd like to have is for the default to be
read only and allow only certain users to write to it. So I set the
read only property to yes then I supplied users for write and admin
previledges. I log into my XP box as administrator and map to the
share but I still can't write to it.

I tried turning the read only setting off and still could not write to
it. Any help? Here's my current smb.conf.

# Samba config file created using SWAT
# from 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1)
# Date: 2004/11/11 09:35:39

# Global parameters
[global]
     server string = Linux Server
     interfaces = eth1
     security = SHARE
     preferred master = Yes
     ldap ssl = no

[Data]
     path = /Data
     admin users = root, admin, administrator
     write list = root, admin, administrator
     guest ok = Yes



# ll /Data

$ man smb.conf

writable = yes
or
writeable = yes
both should be ok.


Tried that. Those two are synonyms for the read only attribute. I
tried setting the share attribute read only to no. I still couldn't
write to it.


valid users = mary fred


I set guest ok to yes. Shouldn't this allow any users on? I'm doing
this for testing right now. Is it possible that my XP box is
remembering the settings for that share from the first time it logged
in?

What I do is I change the settings. I restart both smbd and nmbd. I
disconnect the drive that is mappened to the share. I re-connect and
try.


check your settings with
# testparm

Have you tried chmod 777 /Data ? Or if you are using acls, setfacl -m u::groupnameallowedtowrite /Data
