All, I have user profiles setup and can access the accounts through NT-2K-XP. I am having trouble though with copying files. I can copy out of a user directory but cannot copy in or write to a user directory. Here is what my smb.conf file looks like. Samba is running on a Sun Ultra Sparc Solaris 7 Samba 2.2.7. I have removed the read only, writeable, guest options but the problem persists. After each change I rerun ./smbclient -U% -L localhost and re-init the nmbd smbd daemons.
