Subject: Re: Samba on CentOS
ok, I ran getenforce. It was "enforcing". I ran setenforce permissive, but
I still have the issue.

Here is my conf entry:

[voltamp]
comment = Voltamp File Space on 2
valid users = +voltamp
path = /voltamp
force create mode = 0770
force directory mode = 0770
create mask = 0007
read only = no
writable = yes

I did the smbpasswd for the user, but I can't find where the user is
added. my conf file says it uses the tdbsam, but I don't know much about it.

I checked my file permissions, they are set to 770. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Eric
