Re: Problems configuring SAMBA share on remote machine

I'm having problems getting a SAMBA share on a remote (Windows XP)
machine to allow me write access to files. I can copy/paste whole files
OK from my CentOS 5 box, but can't do any editing of files on the
Windows XP machine, which I use as a file server for most of my domestic
data (historical reasons for using Windows!). I've tried re-setting
permissions to allow write access to the cifs-mounted folders/files, but
without success - any suggestions please?

It is most likely permissions on the XP machine. Service pack 2 added some more restrictions to remote access, and it might be quite a bit of trial and error to get it working the way you want. Maybe you might need to break from history and do things differently since some of the rules seem to have changed.
