What am I doing wrong with FreeDOS and mounting a Samba file share?
I have a Virtualbox image I found at
https://www.lazybrowndog.net/freedos/virtualbox/?page_id=33 which seems to
have everything ready for networking. I have Samba installed on the host
Linux machine. From the host I can mount the share, but not entirely on
FreeDOS. The best I can manage is read-only access if the "valid users"
parameter (below) is removed.
I managed to get this to work a few years ago and recall that the solution
has something to do with using SMB protocol 1. None of the guides I find
now for mounting a share from FreeDOS mention this and Samba now seems
unwilling to admit it knows anything about SMB1.
Here's what I have for the share in /etc/smb.conf:
[Dave]
comment = Dave's stuff
path = /home/dave/foobar
read only = no
guest ok = yes
browsable = yes
writable = yes
valid users = dave
