[Samba] HELP!!!! Access denied. Source file may be in use
I cant seem to resolve this no matter what I do to the global section. I have compiled Samba 2.2.7 on a Solaris 7 box. smbclient populated correctly and from my client I can see all the user shares as well as access them. I can also ftp files out but when I try to copy something into the Samba share, whether it is my own, test, or another users share, I get "Access Denied: The source file may be in use" The files I am attempting to copy are test text files. The system is a sandbox for the programmers to share files so there shouldn't be any user restrictions requiring uname and passwd logons. Here are the contents of my smb.conf file: # Global Parameters file for Samba 2.2.7 created manually by L. Goldston for XXXX # and the XXXX domain group. # [global] workgroup = XXXXXX security = share encrypt passwords = no log level = 2 log file = /var/log/samba.log read only = no writable = yes [printers] path = /usr/tmp guest ok = yes printable = yes min print space = 2000 [test] comment = For testing only, please browseable = yes path = /export/home/test create mask = 0660 directory mask = 0770 read only = no writable = yes guest ok = yes [data] path=/export/samba/data comment = Data Drive volume = Sample-Data-Drive writable = yes guest ok =yes [username] comment = xxxxx browseable = yes username = xxxxx path = /export/home/xxxxx create mask = 0777 directory mask = 0777 writable =yes guest ok = yes hosts allow = <my IP address inserted in this field> [xxxxx] comment = xxxxx browseable = yes path = /export/home/xxxxx create mask = 0660 directory mask = 0770 writable = yes guest ok = yes [xxxxx] comment = xxxxx browseable = yes path = /export/home/xxxxx create mask = 0660 directory mask = 0770 writable = yes guest ok = yes [homes] comment = %H path = %H read only = No browseable = No Lloyd Goldston III System Administrator II Kiowa Warrior Software Engineering Directorate WK: 256-876-2284 Fax: 256-876-7882

I can't see anything obviously wrong with your setup, but I would suggest you turn the log level up to 3, restart samba, then try to do the same file access and see if the logs tell you anything more. It's worth checking the Unix user(s) that samba users is connecting with and seeing if they actually have permission in Unix to write to the files in question. Cheers, Paul
