Great, That is going to work.

 

Even though I changed it in konqueror it did not change in smb.cong

The only problem I have now, is being able to save the changes I have made. i am getting a error that I am not authorized to change it.

 

I am the only user, logged in to my name. what can I do?

 

Kowash

 

Open the terminal and then:

- 'su' to root

- open smb.conf in vim (cd /etc/samba ; vim ./smb.conf)

- make your changes

- * to save them: press 'esc' button; type ':'; type wq (w- write; q- quit)

 

* vim help

 

That should work.

Thanx,

 

My config after I changed it looked like this

[KOWASHOFFICE]

path = /home/kowash/Office

comment = /home/kowash/Office

public = yes

guest ok = yes

writable = yes

wide links = no

 

Unfortunately it did not work.

It was a nice lesson. :D

 

Sometimes I feel like. It's only me and my PC on some foreign Island called - Ourownthingsworkdifferent :lol:

 

Anyway. I am eagerly awaiting your reply

 

Bye

 

 

Unfortunately, i'm out of ideas. I only told you what i did and that worked for me.

Maybe, if you start from scratch (after all your trials, you might have messet it all :))

you might sucseed.

If i'll come up with something - i would let you know.

 

Good luck!
