Here's the /etc/samba/smb.conf file. I notice it's called smb.conf rather
than samba.conf.

It's been the same since I installed Karmic Koala. On previous versions I
was able to paste into Windows shared folders.

By the way, when I want to go from Windows to Karmic, I have to manually
start the samba service using 'sudo service samba start'. I picked this up
from a comment on one of the forums.

 I'll try and get you that error log.

Bye for now,
John.
