LinuxQuestions.org - Unable to write to Samba Shares.

I have been searching and searching for a solution to my problem, but have been unable to find an answer.

I have been unable to properly configure Samba to act like a workgroup computer similar to WinXP. This is my set up:

3 computers. 1 Linux, 2 WinXP. All are connected via a wireless LinkSys router. Obviously Samba is installed on the Linux (SuSE 10) machine. Simple File Sharing is enabled on the WinXp computers.

This is the problem:

I can access all shares on all computers throughout the network. I can write from WinXP to WinXP shares and from Linux to WinXP. WinXP is unable to write to the Samba Shares, but can read and copy the files. When I try to write to the Samba Shares, the WinXP system gives the following error:

"Cannot Copy Samba+HOWTO-Collection: Cannot find the specified file. Make sure you specify the correct path and file name."

I am unsure what could be the problem so here is my smb.conf file:

Code:

# smb.conf is the main Samba configuration file. You find a full commented

# version at /usr/share/doc/packages/samba/examples/smb.conf.SUSE if the

# samba-doc package is installed.

Can you see anything that does not look right? Perhaps I tried to set up a small simple network wrong, in that case what would be the proper steps?

Any help you could provide will be greatly appreciated.
