[Samba] XP can't read SAMBA shares - can browse and write
Server - Samba 3.0.14 on AMD64 running Gentoo Client - XP professional Can log in, see, browse, and write TO shares according to permissions assigned on server. Just can't read or copy any files FROM server to XP client. Disabled XP firewall to see if it was interfering, no change. Lots of google searching, found a post from 17/11/98 posing a similar question but no answer... http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/1998-November/009563.html Ideas? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Can you email me the smb.conf file you used in your Samba 3.0.14 configuration that allowed you to write to shares. I have been trying to get Samba 3.0.14 and 3.0.22 to allow writing to shares from Windows XP without success. I can read the shares, browse them, just can not write files to them. I'll email you my smb.conf file which allows reading/browsing shares from Windows XP. Thanks. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/XP-can%27t-read-SAMBA-shares---can-browse-and-write-t284992.html#a4737381 Sent from the Samba - General forum at Nabble.com.
