Im running samba on Slack8 and have succesfully set up samba on my box as dump space. I have 2 samba accounts : root and "Brian". The only problem is that the "Brian" account hasnt been given the right to write and edit to that space. How do I change the user permissions so I can do this?
I already have a share setup "DUMP". the code for it is
[DUMP]
path = /home/DUMP
public = yes
writable = yes
read only = no
It works when logged in as root so I know it works. My friend tells me that I need to change the second accounts permissions to the share space. How would I allow it to read/write/edit shit in the share space?
