Sorry for intervening into this thread, but I have some problems
with permissions to subdirectories myself.
A windows machine should be able to read and write its profiles
to a directory called
/usr/local/samba/profiles .
This works ok for a user with root access to my samba server, but
it ends up in "access denied" for any other user (they belong to
a group called samba).
How do I have to set up the permissions?

And to Scott's problem: please see to remarks at the end of this
mail!

- Did you disable windows' password encryption?
- Did you set up a samba user account with smbpasswd ?
