[anne-public] comment = Public in Anne's home dir. path = /home/anne/Public browsable = yes writable = yes Remember that anyone who is going to be a samba user will need an account on your box (just set up a user for each) and then you need 'smbpasswd add' + username which will then prompt you for passwords.
