Ok, Samba is up and running. I can see the share I set up. However, I
can not write to it. What I'd like to have is for the default to be
read only and allow only certain users to write to it. So I set the
read only property to yes then I supplied users for write and admin
previledges. I log into my XP box as administrator and map to the
share but I still can't write to it.

I tried turning the read only setting off and still could not write to
it. Any help? Here's my current smb.conf.
