samba problems

bob_man_uk · 01-19-2005, 05:17 AM

i am making a trial webserver at home and am running debian woody 3.0r4 i have samba 2.2.3 installed and seem to have problems making a share and allowing my networked home pcs access to it, at work we have winbind installed but i thought this was only required if you need to authenticate with a windows server instead of having all user accounts on the linux box, (prove me wrong please) anyway what i want to know is, is it possible to create a share that any user from any group can access a specific share, i will post my smb.conf if it helps,

cheers

I, for one, am a little fuzzy on the meaning of this. Could you please rephrase it?
And yes, please do post your smb.conf
