I am pretty much a samba newbie. In the past, I have created a share like
this without a problem, but my troubleshooting skills with samba are minimal
as I have minimal experience.
I am trying to create a user share (using the pcguest user) that is wide
open to the network. The directory is /var/snd. Network users on Windows can
see the folder, but get the general permission denied when trying to access
it. I created a share to the /tmp and had NO problems accessing it from the
Windows boxes. Then, I changed the smb configuration for the /tmp to point
to /var/snd and I still could not access it. Directory permissions are
RWXRWXRWX. pcguest is uid 98 gid 99
This has to be obvious to others... but I am not seeing it.
smb.conf:
workgroup = Rad
server string = Rdell
hosts allow = 192.168.0. 192.168.10.
printcap name = /etc/printcap
guest account = pcguest
log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
max log size = 50
security = user
socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_SNDBUF=8192 SO_RCVBUF=8192
domain master = no
dns proxy = no
winbind uid = 16777216-33554431
winbind gid = 16777216-33554431
restrict anonymous = no
preferred master = no
netbios name = Rdell
max protocol = NT
ldap ssl = No
server signing = Auto
map to guest = Bad User
guest ok = yes
force user = pcguest
inherit acls = yes
case sensitive = no
msdfs proxy = no
[homes]
comment = Home Directories
browseable = no
read only = no
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/spool/samba
browseable = no
guest ok = yes
printable = yes
[snd]
read only = no
path = /var/snd
guest only = yes
