Hi guys!
I can usually get samba caressed into doing what I want it to do, but I
have a problem that is eluding me.
It is probably simple, but I just can't get it to work. . .
I have a linux/samba server and I need a share set up that will allow
connections and give R/W access without requiring a login.
In other words, I need this to just be a dumb share, accessible to all,
writeable by all, but not requiring usernames and passwords.
I will be setting the host.allow to only allow certain computers to use
it, but I need this to work.
What will I need in the share definitions in /etc/samba/smb.conf
I have tried this an other. . .
[generic]
path = /samba/generic
guest = yes
read only = no
browseable = no
force create mode = 0777
and the path is set to RWX for everyone on the /samba/generic directory.
Still requires a login to access the share. . .
Any ideas?
This is basically for a temporary place to place files to move between
networks since the server in question sits between the two networks as a
firewall.
Thanks in advance!
