So I have my Debian Linux (latest stable release) box setup as a Samba server for my home LAN. What I'm trying to do is share a single directory (not a home directory) to any/all computers on the LAN. I have several Windwos client (a mix of Win9x, Win2000, and WinXP) as well as an iBook G3 running OSX 10.2.6.

This share works great from all of the Windows clients.

From the iBook, I can read files without any issues. Where I run into
problems is when I try to drag-and-drop a file from the iBook to the Samba share via the Finder GUI, I get the error message:

The operation cannot be completed because you do not have sufficient privileges for "filename".

I also am unable to create files on the share using File->Save from any GUI-based apps (e.g. TextEdit).

Strangely enough, if I open a Terminal window on the OSX client, and cd to the share (in /Volumes), I can copy/create/delete files to my heart's content.

I'm sure it must have something to do with those pesky resource files. In my smb.conf file I have "hide dot files = no", and "hide files" and "veto files" are undefined. For kicks, I also tried enabling "map system", "map hidden", and "map archive" to no avail.

Any more suggestions?

-Tom
