I'm trying to enable full public smb access to a particular ibay so that Win98 and ME clients that do not have accounts on the server can access this fileshare.
Based on my attempt at understanding smb.conf, I added
guest ok = yes
browsable = yes
to the ibay definition, resulting in:
[labshare]
comment = Lab File Share
path = /home/e-smith/files/ibays/labshare/files
read only = no
writable = yes
printable = no
inherit permissions = yes
create mode = 0777
guest ok = yes
browsable = yes
I then restarted smb, but still no luck.
I know, I know I need to do this with templates to make permament, but first I want to get it to work, then I can worry about making it permanent.
To fix this, do I need to set the guest ok = yes instead of its current setting of no?:
guest account = public
guest ok = no
Help!
