Samba share not accessible
Hello,
So close and yet... I'm just setting up a samba system, and just when I thought I was all done, I get this error when connecting to the samba share from an XP client: "\\Smoky\/home/documents is not accessible. You might not have permissions to use this network resource. Contact your administrator..."
Samba Box:
Slackware 9.1
Samba 2.2.8a
Computer name: Smoky
Shared: /home/documents
Samba configuration file listed below
Client Box:
Windows XP
I thought that I had licked the username/password problem already. For a long time, from the XP machine, I could see Smoky, but cliking it would give me login box, but no combination of usernames & passwords would work. I finally a user defined on the slackware machine with the same name and password (case sensitive) as my usual account on the XP machine. Once that was finally done, clicking on the Smoky computer from the XP machine would give me two folders:
/home/documents
Printers and Faxes
It is when I open the /home/docuemnts folder that I get the error above.
Also, the permissions on the share are rw for all.
Since I can see the share, doesn't that mean Samba is getting my username and password okay. And if so, then why won't it let me view the share?
I hope someone can help.
Following is my smb.conf file:
# Samba config file created using SWAT
# from localhost (127.0.0.1)
# Date: 2003/12/06 23:43:57
# Global parameters
