Hi, I have a problem where whenever I try to connect/access my samba server from windows, it returns the error 'Acces is Denied'. I don't know why, I just reinstalled FC3 (no GUI), before I had it working fine, but now I just get the error. Here is my smb.conf:
[global]
workgroup =HOME
netbios name = SERVER
server string = File Server
passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
unix password sync = Yes
log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
max log size = 50
socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
printcap name = /etc/printcap
dns proxy = No
idmap uid = 16777216-33554431
idmap gid = 16777216-33554431
cups options = raw
[homes]
comment = Home Directories
read only = No
browseable = No
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/spool/samba
