Hi I have installed samba 3.0.7-1 on debian sarge. I have configure it as standalone. I put a share as follows: [share] writeable = yes browseable = yes public = yes path = /home/samba The permission on /home/samba is as follows: chmod 777 /home/samba Now on my windows XP, the share is listed when i browse. I am also able to copy a file to the share. But i cannot open the file and it just freeze my windows. Some helps will be much appreciated. Thanks __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

You may need to post your smb.conf, I have a same kind of share as yours and it
works fine.
For example:
[backup]
        browseable = yes
        comment = Backup share
        writable = yes
        public = yes
        path = /home/backup
        available = yes
The only difference being I have it set to available and a comment. Mine is
perfectly accessible from a Windows XP Pro machine without any problems. (read
& write)

I use the vanilla 2.4.27 kernel, this is on a Gentoo Linux box (2004.2). The share in question is on a 1.36TB RAID-5 (6x 300GB) Reiser 3.6 partition. The attributes for the directory 'backup' are 777. The rest of the filesystem is ext2 (boot parition) and ext3 (/ partition).
