So I added a new user names cambo then forced that user on the folder. Not 
working

I chown'ed cambo:cambo on my folder and still no go so as a last resort I did a 
chmod 777 on the folder still not working.

Then I changed my samba from being in share mode to being in user mode and when 
I was browsing from my windows client test pc it asked for a username and 
password then no-matter what I entered (I did try root and cambo) it popped the 
same error message.

Error is

  '/home/storman/carda/email' does not exist or permission denied when 
connecting to [akemail] Error was Permission denied

Ls /home/folder/folder/folder/

drwxrwxrwx 2 cambo  cambo 4.0K Dec 23 04:01 email

Samba config file:

[global]
        admin users = none 
        create mask = 0666
        server string = Samba %v
        print command = lp -d %p %s
        security = user
        encrypt passwords = yes
        workgroup = CFD
        domain master = no
        local master = no
        preferred master = no
        os level = 0
        default case = lower
        preserve case = no
        browsable = yes

[akemail]
        path = /home/folder/folder/email
        guest ok = yes
        force user = cambo
        read only = no


Any Ideas?

-a implies -r and -p (among others) so that's redundant.

ACL problem maybe?  If you use posix ACLs then rsync -A will transfer
those too.

If you store ACL info in a samba database, you will have to transfer
that somehow.
