Access on Window shares...


From all the wonderful help here, I've gotten my Windows to see my Linux shares and my Linux to see my Window shares. I have one issue, which I'm currently working to solve. Even when setting up the share, I'm using an administrator account that's on my windows machine, I cannot WRITE to my Window shares? Even fooling with permissions and checking things like read only have been looked into. How do I give the Windows admin to write to the Window shares that he's an administrator to already?
I hope I explained myself correctly here. If not, ask me what you need and I'll respond.

assuming you've got a bog standard setup on the win share, you should be able to just change to options in /etc/fstab (ssuming you're using that) to, say, set umask=000 giving full rights to the drive

I'll give that a try and see what happens.
