Cheers Terry, yes the distro is xubuntu 12:10 (upgraded from 12:04), I
have had a quick look at the link, only 136 pages!!!!
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 have wondered if nfs would be a better option but I think the fact
that I can't change the permission of the files under the nas os might
be a problem (which I guess is the same problem here anyway)
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).
Well following the first post in Terry's link I now have the nas
available on my PC with read write access, I need to try it on the wifes
PC but she is currently refusing to budge so that is a project for this
afternoon.
Not exactly sure which part of the instruction made the difference, I
had not done the wins bit before but I had done the secret file with the
username and password
Thanks for the help all
