Re: Permission in Amahi Webinterface - without Console!

i always encourage people to go with vi it's a little trickier but sometimes you don't get a chance to gedit etc so using putty (from windows) or terminal (from linux) clients vi /etc/samba/smb.conf this will allow you to view the smb.conf file. just scroll down to view. you will see you shares eg [...

Re: Permission in Amahi Webinterface - without Console!

check your /etc/samba/smb.conf file In amahi: when only certain users are allowed > valid users = UserA, UserB when write access allowed > write list = UserA however, maybe the dev's should consider the use of "read list" as well as valid users "read list" overrides any other Sam...

Re: Amahi Access for Friends

i'm aware of people voicing these concerns but exactly what are they? i'm also aware of the ideal world eg just use a sole box as a webserver etc but..... if the directory isn't writable, what damage can be done? i've had webservers going for years and never had an issue and yes before you ask, they...

Re: shares permissions

you need to check which user credentials you are using to access the share ie is it the user with the read permisions only? (eg UserB, UserC in example below) NB: samba permissions will not overule file permissions. check your smb.conf file also. under your share you should see something like: valid...

Re: Shares permissions

i assume you are using windows to access the share.
is you son or other user using his own login? ie the username & password on the hda that is not writable?
or has access been granted to that share with the user with full permissions?

run smbstatus from the shell to see who is connected.
