Hi list, I've been trying to get my home network to work for the past three years and nothing has ever worked, except internet sharing which is handled by a router. Does this mean I'm an idiot or that it's difficult?
Basically, I have a server which will contain one directory accessible by all users of my home network and another directory accessible only by certain users of the network. The Shared Directory -------------------- In SMB.CONF this is: [share] comment = Public space on atomserv.net path = /tmp/share readonly = no writable = yes public = yes This one works well. Users can view, create and modify files/directories, but for some reason they can't delete or rename files/directories! The Private Directory --------------------- First, I created a user account for each network user on the server. In SMB.CONF I did: [keith_private] path = /home/keithvassallo_net/shared comment = Keith's private directory on atomserv.net valid users = keithvassallo_net public = no writable = yes printable = no When I try to access this one from my PC (both GNU/Linux and Windows) it asks me for a password and when I enter the username/password of my account on the server it doesn't work. Please tell me I'm doing something wrong! I've been trying to solve this one for so long I dream about it! -- Keith Vassallo Registered GNU/Linux user #290991 http://www.keithvassallo.net
