Its setup the same as you described.
Okay, there are several things that you need to make sure of. - The username/password on Windows is the same as the username/password that you added using smbpasswd on Linux. - Samba global is setup for: security = user encrypt passwords = yes smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd - The share includes a list of valid users: valid users = @groupname (group that user belongs to) - I like to add the following to most shares: browseable = yes guest ok = no writeable = yes force group = groupname force create mode = 0664 force directory mode = 0775 inherit permissions = yes - The Linux filesystem permissions on the actual directory allows access by the required users. I like to do it like this: mkdir shared chown root.groupname shared chmod 0775 shared chmod g+s shared Then after adding a user with useradd, I have to edit /etc/group to add them to <groupname> and add their Windows password to Samba with smbpasswd. - -- Anthony E.
