[KLUG Members] Continuing the Samba dance - Part 3 Sharing files

The samba server is now up and running.  I have all of the users added
and sync'd in Samba, Linux and WindowsXX.  WinXP machines see the Samba
server.  I can copy FROM WinXP to the Samba box while on the XP machine.
Now, the problem.  I cannot copy from WinXP to the Samba server. As a
test, I tried setting permissions in the destination directory on Samba
to 777.  No luck.  I tried various users including one with admin/root
rights on both machines.   Still, no luck.

What setting did I miss?  How do I tell Samba to let WinXP write to the
directory.

Thanks,
Mark
