Well I went from centos 5 to 6 and copied over my smb.conf and
everything worked fine
I can't remember if I copied over the smb passwords or just created them
again with smbpasswd, but I have not used tdbedit, so I didn't realize
that it is the preferred method now. And now that I've looked at it,
smbpasswd is still supported, but I don't know for how long. :P

Lee,
you're right. tdbedit is the command.
Thanks,

Glad to hear you have it working.
Your question about tbdsam kind of stumped me in that I had no
idea where samba stored this information.
After some searching around, I found out that the tbdsam files are
stored in /var/lib/samba/private (On Centos 6.x at least)
But I'm not finding the command you're mentioning, tbdconfig. Are
you sure you're spelling it right?
I did stumble across a command you might find useful: pdbedit
This will list info on all your samba users:
pdbedit -L -v

I used tbdconfig to set my password instead of smbpasswd. I
rebooted, and now it works.
Thanks,

ok, I ran getenforce. It was "enforcing". I ran setenforce
permissive, but I still have the issue.
Here is my conf entry:
[voltamp]
comment = Voltamp File Space on 2
valid users = +voltamp
path = /voltamp
force create mode = 0770
force directory mode = 0770
create mask = 0007
read only = no
writable = yes
I did the smbpasswd for the user, but I can't find where the user
is added. my conf file says it uses the tdbsam, but I don't know
much about it.
I checked my file permissions, they are set to 770. Any ideas?
Thanks,

The conf file isn't the only thing you need to copy. You also
need the file(s) that hold the samba passwords. Where this file
is and what it is called has changed in more recent versions of
samba, so you'll have to do some looking. Your smb.conf file
should tell you something. The smbusers file might also need to
be copied.
Also, as others have mentioned, SELINUX is a hell of a drug.
Luckily it can be configured to let samba do its thing. I did
this myself recently and only two changes were required, but don't
ask me to repeat them from memory. There is a tool in KDE that
runs in the system tray that tells you when selinux is fussing,
and it also provides tips on how to make it be quiet. This is how
I got it working on my laptop.

Subject: Samba on CentOS
Hi all,
I am trying to get Samba to installed on a CentOS 6.2 machine. I
have read-only access working, but when I try to make edits to
files, it claims I don't have permissions. I copied my smb.conf
file from another machine that had things working, so the conf
file should be good.
I read some online about SELinux settings. I tried setting a few,
but it had no change. Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Eric
