Hi is there a link to a tutorial for Ubuntu 10.04 (lucid)??
I attempted to follow this one: http://reformedmusings.wordpress.com...cid-10-04-lts/
But I was unsuccessful. I have been trying to share a Music folder that is in a NTFS partition over the network.
When I run the testparm command this is what I get:
The tutorial mentioned that I had to change the folder permissions according to Samba. In my case I want to have other computers to access/read only. I could not change the ownership from root to mine own, but it is set to have all people create and delete files.
*****@Engel:~$ sudo testparm
Load smb config files from /etc/samba/smb.conf
rlimit_max: rlimit_max (1024) below minimum Windows limit (16384)
Processing section "[printers]"
Processing section "[print$]"
Processing section "[Music]"

When I go to a Windows 7 machine and click to see the network, my computer doesn't even appear on the list...
Could someone help me share this folder over the network?
Attached is my /etc/samba/smb.conf file
Update: I found out what was wrong... the firewall was rejecting any computer to access my shared folder...
