Since my distro change I have not been able to get samba working properly
I have 4 shares which live on an external USB HD connected to my mepis box.
Previously I was able to let my user (read family) access the share reading
and writing to them from XP and 2000 boxes. All the users had a dummy account
on my box (they never logged onto the box) but the username and password
allowed them access to the shares.
Best I had manged to get up until the weekend was they were readable and you
could download from the shares but you could not upload to the shares from
windows. Now they can't even access them.
My smb.conf is below, please bear in mind I have been playing with it so it
does look a mess:
Anyone like to enlighten me (and I don't mean the gnome package)
