Hi All, I was able to get a basic system working with the following configuration. [global] workgroup = workgroupone encrypt passwords = yes [test] comment = for testing only path = /users read only = no guest ok = yes Note : 1) workgroup name must match client workgroup name. 2) test is the name of the share. 3) You must make a directory named /users 4) Must chmod 777 /users 5) I think you need to restart Samba. I'm going to go though the original smb.conf file supplied by Caldera and comment everything out until I find what was causing me problems. I post the problem as soon as I find it. My thanks to everyone who lent a hand! Thanks, Keith Smith (not the football player)
