Yeah, but only the first page contains the info; the rest are the comments.
I found that my problem was fixed by the time I'd done three or four of the
recommended fixes.

I can't quite see why permissions on the NAS box should effect user access in
this instance. I don't know what kind of NAS Box you have, but my Netgear
Stora provides an account for each user and gives them access to their files
and a 'Family Library' which contains files that other users have shared.
To get access to this using samba. On Kubuntu, I open Dolphin, click on the
network link in the LH pane and this gives me 'Samba Shares' as a folder.
When I click on this, I'm asked to log in. At this point have have to enter
my Stora credentials and then I’m in.
Exactly what happen if you do this in Ubuntu (using Nautilus presumably).
