[Samba] can't create directories/files on network share

[Dan Egli]

Hey folks, I'm experiencing some weird errors all of a sudden. I have
not made any changes to the config but for some reason I cannot create
files/directories on my network share. An example would be the error I
get when I try to update the virus signatures on my portable ClamWin
install:


ERROR: Can't open ..\..\..\Data\log\ClamScanLog.txt in append mode
(check permissions!).
ERROR: Problem with internal logger (UpdateLogFile =
..\..\..\Data\log\ClamScanLog.txt).

The file is there, and the unix permissions are 664. On a whim, I
deleted the file, and re-ran freshclam. Result was this:

ERROR: chdir_tmp: Can't create directory
\\jupiter2\dan\PortableApps\ClamWinPortable\Data\db\clamav-d8c9cba4109568384d64b0ccd5d6a9e5.00000f7c.clamtmp\clamav-b2dfa357fa4bd32330ae2c71e725716c.00000f7c.clamtmp

amWinPortable\Data\db: Permission denied
WARNING: Can't download daily.cvd from database.clamav.net

why on earth could it not create a directory? The only share on this
samba box is [HOMES], so I don't know what to do. Help?
