Samba2.0.7 and Winnt4.0

How do I have to configure Samba207's smb.conf file on my workstation (715/50 with HP-UX10.20) and my Winnt4.0-pc,
that the pc-workstation can access a file share that is not public and not writable.

Hi Werner,

Why don't your try to set public and writeable keywords to "no" in your smb.conf for the right share ? Eg:

--snip--
[privtools]

available = yes

comment = Private tools
create mask = 0644

directory mask = 0755

path = /toolbox/private
printable = no

read list = @tcvrdt01-users

# Miscellaneous

browseable = yes
writeable = no
public = no
--snip--

I hope this helps !

Best regards.

Fred.

Re: Samba2.0.7 and Winnt4.0

Dear Frederic,
I tried my very best with the setting you told me, but the only thing I get is "You cannot connect to ... from ..." on my Winnt-Pc.

The only way to get a connection is setting public = yes with samba's version 1.9, in version 2.0.7 that doesn't
work either.

What is wrong?
Would you please help me again?
