Unknown parameter encountered: "valid user"
HI all Gurus,
I am running a Samba server on Red Hat linux 9.Some users are accessing
this Samba server from windows'98 machine.
Today morning,suddenly some users are not getting write access on the files stored on the Samba server.While viewing the status of the samba server,using 'smbstatus',i got following message :
[root@server root]# smbstatus
Unknown parameter encountered: "valid user"
Ignoring unknown parameter "valid user"
Unknown parameter encountered: "valid user"
Ignoring unknown parameter "valid user"
Unknown parameter encountered: "valid user"
Ignoring unknown parameter "valid user"
ERROR: Badly formed boolean in configuration file: "@users".
Samba version 2.2.7a
Service uid gid pid machine

But,Some of the windows users are not able to perform write actions on files on the Samba server,Windows is showing 'Access Denied' message ,

And some windows users are not able to perform write operations on the files on samba server ?
