| 200702 | 2003-12-17 21:49:00 | ummm. Trying to share a folder to my windows computers, so I can just click and drag into that folder, and it goes to the linux PC. Im going away for a week now though, so I will try when I get back |

| 200703 | 2003-12-17 22:04:00 | Try using my settings for /transfer make a folder called /transfer then do (as root): chmod -R 777 /transfer Cya after your holiday :-) Chill. |

| 200704 | 2003-12-24 07:16:00 | Nope, I just cant get it. I dunno if I can understand properly, or else im going rather insane from trying so much. From the very begging, in words of one syllable :-), maybe grunt a few times, how exactly do I do this? For a start, I will put your smb.conf in chilling_silently, and then you tell me what to from there. Thanks |

| 200705 | 2003-12-24 07:43:00 | Okay, if you've got yourself that smb.conf file I posted about a week back, do the following as root: mkdir /transfer chmod 777 /transfer edit your smb.conf file and get rid of [My Music], [Vidz] and [Install], or modify them to suit. Get rid of [Misc Files] too... Next, run: /etc/init.d/samba restart If that doesnt work: /etc/rc.d/rc.samba restart Which one works will depend on what Distro. After that, you should be all peachy :-) Try browsing your Linux PC shares :-) Cheers Chill. |

| 200706 | 2003-12-24 21:09:00 | Where abouts do I make that /transfer folder? In the home/joe place, or somewhere else? | mejobloggs (264) | ||
| 200707 | 2003-12-24 21:50:00 | Nope, just /transfer Hence the "/" before the "transfer" Its just that its a nice accesible place for everybody etc. If it were in /home/joe, I would have told you to make ~/transfer The ~ before the / means /home/username/ Cool huh :-) Getting on alright with it? |

| 200708 | 2003-12-24 23:35:00 | yes! I done it now! I dunno what I was doing wrong before, thanks a lot! |

| 200709 | 2004-08-09 07:36:00 | Ignore this people, just making some notes here, because this is the second time I have had this problem. You may read and laugh at my noobness. Make sure the samba stuff points to a folder that is there! /home/jonathan/backup Is completely different to /home/backup security level - put ";" in front of line to delete it. |
