Hello In order to give right access to the home directory - Comment / or delete writable = no and read only = no and writable = yes is exactly the same thing. You don't need writable = yes anyway - I suggest you don't pico /usr/local/etc/smb.conf after this because there are more appropiate tools such as "SWAT" which can make your job so much easier.
