I am running Samba (latest version) under redhat 8.0
in the smb.conf, I have security = user,
and have set userid's and passwords based on 3 Linux accounts
I have.
this works fine in windows XP and 2000,
but in Windows 98 and WIndows Me, samba prompts me for a password
to //servername//Home
why does it prompt for a password in 98/Me but not 2000/XP?
also, in XP, I can write to /home/username
but am not able to create or write to /home/username/subdirectories
I was told I had to set permissions in redhat to do this, but
I think
the problem is /home/username/public_html was created by root,
if username created it, then it'll write just fine, but since
root
created it then it won't let username write to it. how would
I go
about fixing this from the root side so that username can write
to it?
