Trying to install samba 3.0.3 on my Linux server, to serve 4 PCs, all in
my house, serving my family. Each of 4 users will have a home
directory, plus I'll have at least 2 read-only shares.
I have basic connectivity, but can't get some of the clients to behave
the way I want them to.
Specifically, I want to have full admin access for myself for all
directories. Everyone else should be able to access their directories
without having to enter a password. Access to the read-only shares
should also be achieved without entering passwords.
What I have is: one client (ironically, my laptop) that can access the
shares (all of them) without entering a password. The other clients are
always required to enter a password, regardless of which user we access
them through.
I have rebuilt the smb.conf file several times, and it doesn't seem to
change anything. Obviously it's an external issue.
Can anyone offer any advice?
Thank you very much!
