samba - Oct 2001 - "Access Denied" when trying to rename a file from win2k

hello,
i'm new to samba, don't really know much besides getting the samba
server up and running.  i have redhat-7.1 running samba on one machine and i
access my home from my win2k machine.  i can listen to my mp3's, etc from
win2k, but when i try to rename from win2k, i get the access denied message. 
also, in my mp3s dir, i can create a new file, edit/rename it, delete it, etc,
but files that already exist, i can't rename for some reason.  the
permissions on the linux side are set for read/write/execute for the user.  what
is wrong?  can anyone answer this problem or defer me to some reading or
documentation about this?

thank you,
christopher

Christopher,

Try creating a file again and then compare the permissions as well as the owner
and group of the newly created file and a file you can't delete.  You may 
be creating
the files as a different user.

Hope this helps.

Hi Christopher,
I think what's happening to you is that the .mp3 type is associated with the
mp3 player, and when you try to 
rename it, it is already 'open' to the mp3 player, so (because of dos
share
modes) it is not allowing you to 
rename it...  I'm doing this from memory, so I'm most probably
forgetting
something; on samba 2.0.x you could
set "share modes=no" on the share where your mp3 files were kept to
take
care of this.  On 2.2.x, the share modesparameter has been depreciated, so I
don't have a solution there...
Hope this helps,
Don
