Can't write to samba share
#1
This is driving me crazy... I've spent way too long working on this!

I have a Zotac Ion system running XBMC with a 1.5tb hard drive in it. I want to be able to access that hard drive via Windows Explorer with the ability to drag and drop files

Currently, I CAN access the folder and write to it via any FTP program.

However, if I try to access it via windows explorer, the share shows up and I CAN read from it, but get an "access denied" error every time I try to write...

Here are the essentials from my smb.conf file right now:

Code:
security = share

   usershare allow guests = yes


[global]
             workgroup = WORKGROUP
             netbios name = XBMC
             server string = XBMC SHARE
             log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
             max log size = 50
             map to guest = bad user
             socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
             local master = no
             dns proxy = no

[Media]
             path = /media/sda2
         guest only = yes
             guest ok = yes
         read only = no
         browsable = yes
         writable = yes

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Nevermind.

For the time being, I was able to get around the issue by adding "guest account = xbmc"
