Samba share/password issue

[gutty96]

I am trying to share files and folders from my Karmic desktop, to my Windows 7 notebook.

The shares are visible, and can be connected, but no matter what username password combo I use, it will not let me browse the folders from he Windows 7 machine.

Any ideas? I must be missing something.

Re: Samba share/password issue

you should have your shares defined something like:

[shared]
path = /shared
comment = Shared files
browseable = yes
public = yes
writable = yes
inherit permissions = yes
create mask = 0775
security mask = 0775
# force create mode = 560
# force group = 560

Note the last two lines are commented out...
