samba - Apr 2006 - XP and Samba

Why can I connect to a samba share with 98 but get error creating folder
when using XP Pro or Home? I can browse and read but no write. This is a
share that I need no restrictions on, just wide open to the local network
users.

I have used this smb.conf with samba 2 however it fails with samba 3.

Thanks

I'm guessing that Win98 connects with no username or password, but XP
connects with the credentials used when you logged in or originally
installed it.

If you're not worried about security, add "public = yes" and
"writable
= yes" to the share config and that will allow all users to write to
the share (assuming the underlying file permissions are okay - if not,
look up the "force user" and "force group" options.)

Cheers,
Adam.
