Thank you.
I can't use "chown"?

Can I ask, if you are following the wikipage, why did you use 'writable 
= yes' instead of the 'read only = no' as shown on the page ?

Not that it makes any difference, they both mean the same 😁

Start a Windows client, navigate to the share and set the required 
permissions from there.
