Hi Tim,<br>
<br>
As per requested here is the output, no mention of cd rom tho, does
this make things more complicated ?<br>
<br>
<tt>Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on<br>
/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00<br>
114078156 10152360 98037388 10% /<br>
/dev/sda1 194442 25623 158780 14% /boot<br>
tmpfs 509296 0 509296 0% /dev/shm<br>
<br>
I'm not running selinux, but I did run that yes just to be sure.<br>
<br>
Also I did notice that yes, but I didn't grasp what it was meaning, I
like to dabble with things so break my linux installation lots and
lots, I can get most things working great through breaking it lots and
lots though :-).<br>
<br>
I have am on a network with a router if that is any help at all, I
thought those lines would enable any computer on my network to connect
to the samba shares but no one from outside the router if they somehow
managed to get into my network.<br>
</tt><br>
On another note I set up the linux box as per the guide from
<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.brennan.id.au">www.brennan.id.au</a> its really helpful imo.<br>

<pre wrap="">Daniel can you please share output of df -k. Hopefully your cd rom uis
mounted and availabe directly from Linux? If not it needs to be.
The path shown via df -k needs to match what is shown in your smb.conf file.
Ie set following sections
path = /cdrom
preexec = /bin/mount /cdrom
postexec = /bin/umount /cdrom
Are you running selinux, if so have you run the two state
setsebool -P samba_enable_home_dirs on
And have you noted this :-
# If you create a new directory you want to share you should mark it as
# "samba-share_t" so that selinux will let you write into it.
I nornmally siable selinux on my systems as it complictates a lot of things!
You could always turn it back on once everything works as you want and then
fix the parts that selinux disables.
It could be that this is affecting which ip addresses can access shares
hosts allow = 192.168.1. 127.0.0.1
In relation to user access permissions see this link

Setting guest access may help?
guest ok = Yes
Hope above helps.
Tim

Subject: Re: [Nelug] Sharing CD-ROM over Samba on Fedora 9
Hi Richard,
My logs are empty nothing in them.... When I try to access cdrom it has a
good long hard think about it (20-30 seconds) then comes up with
\\Epia\cdrom is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this
network resource....
There isn't a /cdrom folder no
Where is the best place to put this directory ? should I just create it in
the root of the filesystem ?
Thanks
Daniel.

<pre wrap="">Hi Daniel,
First off, try looking in the logs (in /var/log/samba), it might give
you a clue as to what the problem is.
Does the directory you are sharing exist?
I copied your [cdrom] section into my samba config, and was prompted
for username / password, then an error "System error 53 has occurred.
The network path was not found."
Once I created /cdrom, i was able to connect without a problem...
Hope this helps,
Richard
