I deleted my vfat partition on my 2nd drive, and recreated it as a ext3 partition - now I can see the files. I mounted the ext3 partition (/dev/hdb1) under the /mnt/data mount point. The I used wembin to make Samba share it.
I did a chmod 777 on /mnt/data, and my Windows machine can create directories in it. However, if I go in to the /mnt/data/mp3s directory, I can *not* create another nested directory. Do I have to do a chmod 777 on every directory inside /mnt/data? Or is there a way to get chmod to recurse through the tree? I have no idea why I wasn't able to see the files on the samba shared vfat partition, at least I got past that. thanks! ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sven Blumenstein" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Sunday, March 23, 2003 4:14 AM Subject: Re: [gentoo-user] Can't see files on Samba share. > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA1 > > On Sun, 23 Mar 2003 11:10:21 +0200 > Theofilos Intzoglou <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > All the permissiong for /mnt/hdb1 are set during the mounting of the > > cdrom.
