Hello all,
I am having an issue connecting to a samba 3 share hosted on one ubuntu
server to a ubuntu client using the mount command.
I can happily mount the share, however It only mounts read only.
If I connect to the share using the smbclient utility - I can write.
Here is the 3.4 share config, straight from the ubuntu manual:
[global]
workgroup=WORKGROUP
security=user
[w]
path = /data/w
browsable = yes
guest ok = yes
read only = no
create mask = 0755
writable = yes
ls -l /data gives
drwxr-xr-x nobody nogroup w
I can connect from the client using:
smbclient //192.168.168.5/w -o guest (this one works fine - i can
create files/directories)
mount -t cifs //192.168.168.5/w /media/w -o guest,rw (read only?)
Can anyone tell me how to mount in Read/Write mode?
Thanks.
