Hi,

I currently serve three WinXP machines with their home directories and a
read only archive directory. this all works fine. I want to supply a
communal directory that everyone can read and write to. I thought it
would be straight forward, but it hasn't been and I do not know why.

I created a directory \mnt\store\pub\everyone and made it 777.

I added the following to samba.conf

        [share]
           comment              = Shared
           guest ok             = yes 
           writable             = yes
           create mask          = 777
           directory mask       = 777
           force user           = root
           force group          = root
           map archive          = yes
           map system           = yes
           map hidden           = yes
           locking              = no
           path                 = /mnt/store/pub/everyone
           public               = yes

The didectory appears on the Windows machine, but Windows users have no
access. What is the most likely thing I have got wrong? Anyone help.

Keith
