hello, i'm currently running Mandrake 9 and i'm able to share out my linuxbox within my workgroup, but i'm having trouble with the file permissions...
i had it working once before with mandrake 8.1, but i have no idea how i fluked out... and cant remember
i have 2 machines, windows xp and windows 2k, and i've shared out some folders in mandrake... i've given each windows machine a username/pass on mandrake according to each of their logins on their own machines...
on mandrake, the windows machines have no problem accessing their /home/<user> directories but when I make a share for a different folder, i just cant get it to give write permissions! and yes write is turned on, but it always says "access denied".
just this part eludes me, and i'm using webmin, because i cant find swat! it gives me some sort of connection error if i try port 901 in the browser.
i'm sure its just a simple setting to put in the permissions, but i just cant seem to nail it, any help would be great, thanks
