Are you mounting using cifs ?
My share is in CentOS 6.6 and my desktop is Mint 17 kde.
I have a samba server on a LAMP dev box and it mounds just fine using
cifs with the mount command being in the fstab.
I wonder if there is a conflix between the two boxes or if there is
something I am missing.
I spun up a minimul CentOS VM and can ping etc. Turned off SElinux and
IPTables. Installed and configured Samba and the same thing is
happening.
I can connect and brows just not upload files. I can even create
directories.
I set the share to 0777.
Could this be a VM thing?

I set up my own share declaration at the end of the smb.conf file.
For example I have a simple one called [archive] that allows backups
to be placed on a server running Ubuntu 15.04 server edition.
I create the samba users and passwords for each user (these match
their unix user accounts)
I set the appropriate unix permissions for the group that I want
typically 775.
I create a group called "archive" in /etc/group and then add all of
the users who are to have access to it into the archive group.
the valid users = @group_name is the key that allows samba to control
the access to samba share.
The key is add the the users to the group in /etc/group and to make
sure that they have a mapped samba username and password.
[archive]
comment = backup drive
path = /srv/archive
browseable = yes
guest ok = no
valid users = @archive
There are other options but I usually find that the I forget to update
the /etc/group file.
Hope that helps

Thanks for the link.
My smbpasswd is in /usr/bin/smbpasswd
Just to make sure I : touch /etc/samba/smbpasswd
then I :
smbpasswd -x username
smbpasswd -a username
still same issue.
Remove /etc/samba/smbpasswd
I've created several directories off of /work/ on the samba server
using the Samba server's command line. Using Dolphin on my desktop
I can add directories to /work/ - they have correct permissions and
ownership. However I get a permissions dialog when adding files to
/work/
If I try to add a file to one of those directories I created using
Dolphin on my desktop there is no error and no file shows up.
Thank you for your help!!

Thanks!! I added the Samba user as one of the first steps. My
smb.config shows "passdb backend = tdbsam". I cannot find the
tdbsam file. What am I missing?

If I remember right, samba doesn't follow regular *nix permissions.
Try running the command:
smbadduser
to get your user name and password in. Use those credentials when
you
login to transfer files and see if it works.

Hi,
I am running Mint 17 KDE. I've uploaded Virtualbox and created a
vm using CentOS 6.6. On the CentOS 6.6 VM I installed Samba.
I created a user on the VM and created the same user as a Samba
user.
I created a directory off root : /work
smb and nmb are both running.
in the /etc/samba/smb.conf I:
1) set the workgroup - I do not think this is necessary since I am
connection from Linux.
2) commented out all the cups references
3) added the following lines:
- path = /work
- writable = yes
- browseable = yes
- read only = no
SELinux is disables
IPTables is disabled
I have the exact same config on a laptop running CentOS 6.6 and it
works fine. Only difference is the laptop mounts and connects to
Samba from the fstab.
To connect to the Samba share on the VM I issue the following
command from my desktop's command line:
sudo mount -t cifs -o user='username' //192.168.20.51/work/ [2] [1]
[1]
/mnt/centos6 (command line on my desktop)
It mounts and I can view the /work directory in Dolphin on the the
parent (mint 17 KDE desktop).
I cannot upload files though.
To test I : chmod -R 777 /work which did not help.
I checked the Samba logs and they contain almost nothing - no
errors are being logged.
I've scoured the internet and am finding no solution.
Tied:
create mask = 0755
create mode = 0660
directory mode = 0770
force create mode = 0660
force directory mode = 0770
force user = keith
force group = keith
which did not make a difference.
Any ideas are much appreciated.
Thanks!!
