I've got a small rights problem with my samba shares - the two shares below are accessed from a Windows XP client - and working fine except for one thing - all data on the shares are "read only" except for all the new stuff I copy to it. I've made a user account on the linux box mathing the one on the linux client - and created the same as a Samba user.
The user is part of the "users" group on the linux box - All files on the two shares are owned by the user "root" and the group "users" (Which the client user is a part of) - I've had this setup running fine on Redhat 8/9 - but since I switched to Debian I cant get it working (Note that I reconfigured smb.conf - so that might be where the problem is)
Extract from smb.conf
Encrypt password = true
security = user
[120gb]
comment = 120gb drive
read only = no
browseable = yes
path = /mnt/120gb
[60gb]
comment = 60gb Drive
read only = no
browseable = yes
path = /mnt/60gb
