Is the share read only by definition in smb.conf?
This is the default. You need to set "read only = no"
or "writeable = yes" in the share definition.
Or is there a "write list" parameter in your share
definition? If so, does it contain the connecting user?
If the share is marked writeable generally or for the
user in question in smb.conf and you still see the
access denied, then you have to check that the
user that is connecting to the share has enough
unix permissions on the folder of the share.
If this does not help, please provide your smb.conf,
the user accessing the share and output of "ls -ld"
(and possibly "getfacl") of the directory in question.
Cheers - Michael
