[Samba] Samba/Windows "you do not have permission to access this"

Yes it's down as writeable = yes in smb.conf

If I change the file's ownership to myself it works - or if I then restart winbind and samba it then becomes accessible too.

There's only an issue if the file owner is different from the person accessing it.

Regards

Craig

Did you configure the share as writeable=yes?

Betreff: [Samba] Samba/Windows "you do not have permission to access this"

I'm constantly running into the above error message when accessing files on a samba share under Win7.

Files are fully accessible under Linux ie the group permissions are being honoured but Windows just locks me out if I'm not the owner.

file: testfile
owner: anotheruser
group: mygroup
user::rwx
group::rwx
other::---
default:user::rwx
default:group::rwx
default:other::---

Has anyone else experienced this? And if so can anyone suggest a fix?

Thanks

Craig
