Hi!
Well, I have a Linux machine (RedHat 9.0) with samba on it and a Win ME on 
the other machine and I want to share a partition for music, read-only. 
(Won't be hard, is mounted read-only) and a transfer share where I can 
write to, too. My config file looks as follwing:
# Samba config file created using SWAT
# from 192.168.0.1 (192.168.0.1)
# Date: 2003/08/04 23:05:42
# Global parameters
[global]
         workgroup = LAN
         netbios name = TOBI
         server string = Tobis Linux-Kiste
         interfaces = eth0
         security = SHARE
         encrypt passwords = Yes
         obey pam restrictions = Yes
         pam password change = Yes
         passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
         passwd chat = *New*password* %n\n *Retype*new*password* %n\n 
*passwd:*all*authentication*tokens*updated*successfully*
         unix password sync = Yes
         log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
         max log size = 0
         socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
         dns proxy = No
         printing = cups
[homes]
         comment = Home Directories
         valid users = %S
         read only = No
         create mask = 0664
         directory mask = 0775
         browseable = No
[printers]
         comment = All Printers
         path = /var/spool/samba
         printable = Yes
         browseable = No
[musik]
         comment = Tobis Musik
         path = /mnt/music
         guest ok = Yes
[transfer]
         comment = Netzwerk-Transfer
         path = /mnt/windows/Netzwerk-Transfer
         read only = No
         guest ok = Yes
[drucker]
         comment = Tobis DeskJet
         path = /var/spool/samba
         read only = No
         guest ok = Yes
         printable = Yes
         printer name = drucker
         oplocks = No
So, the problem is that I can't write from the Windows PC to this transfer 
share; if I want to change a filename I get the message "Access denied; 
maybe the files is opened" and if I want to copy a file to it, I get the 
message "Access denied. Make sure that the drive is neither full nor 
write-protected nor the file is opened." I already rebooted both machines a
few times but always the same result. How can I solve that?
Bye
Tobias

My config file looks as follwing:Make sure you have "writable = yes" for each of your shares, and also, check the directories permissions.

My config file looks as follwing: >Make sure you have "writable = yes" for each of your shares,My config file included "read only = no", isn't that the same?>and also, check the directories permissions.The problem is that the share is a directory on a mounted FAT32 partition where I can't change the permissions. I'd suppose that was the problem if not just before reinstalling this had worked. You see, each few seconds, the line [2003/08/05 21:02:39, 0] passdb/pdb_smbpasswd.c:pdb_getsampwnam(1369) unable to open passdb database. is appended to my logfile and sometimes also [2003/08/05 21:02:39, 0] smbd/service.c:make_connection(252) internet-pc (192.168.0.1) couldn't find service styles Now what is that database and where is the connection to my problem? I may read, but not write...

You need to create to change "security = SHARE" to "security =
user"
then you need to create a file "smbpasswd" inside your samba folder.
After it done you need to create a system user
:adduser somebody
:passwd somebody
:smbadduser somebody:somebody
:smbpasswd somebody
Restart samba and enjoy

	[homes]
	comment = User Foders
