Ya know, I'm not trying to be picky, but it's not a good advertisement of server reliability software when your mailing list server stops working right. ;-) Hoping that the list will pick up mail when it starts working again, I wanna tell everyone what solved my Samba share... For some reason, the line "read only = no" caused shares to become read only. This really does nothing to figure out why it sometimes worked and sometimes didn't. Hopefully, someone who knows more about the internals of Samba can figure out what's going on.
