From [global] I have removed valid users
At first in [MyFiles] I left only the path, which didn't work at all ( I
was presented with an error on XP ), here's what I'm left with:
[MyFiles]
path = /home/samba/
force user = borzo
force group = borzo
create mask = 0644
directory mask = 755
but this didn't change the situation, I am still presented by the
grayedout login prompt, and by the way the share is accessible through
samba locally, aswell as the XP shares.
The share's permissions are set to 0777, user and group are set to borzo
and borzo is added and enabled with smbpasswd.
thanks so far,
SG
