Hi people.

I'm running Samba on Fedora 31.  It's working great.

I want to share a USB drive using Samba.  I've tried mounting it to a
directory within a Samba share and it does work due to permission errors.

- I create the mount directory (USB) as a normal user, thus giving it
"normal" permissions.  Fore test purposes, I can r/w/x files to this
directory with no problems.

- I mount the USB device to the mount directory using mount /dev/sdb1
USB.

- I can access the USB directory from the server and r/w/x everything just
fine.

- When I try to access the share/USB directory from the client, like
Dolphin, it requests permission in the form of user and password.  The user
and password that I use to access the share do not work.  Nor does the user
and password I use to access the server.

What am I missing ?

How does one share a USB device via Samba ?

Thanks
