Did you see in samba's log that the guest user was changed? How did you change it, with "guest user" or with "force user"? As your problem can be reproduced, increasing samba's debug level might help. Samba should log why read access was denied. If you access the samba share with mount_smbfs, do you see the same behavior? > The directory '/mnt/w2k' is owned by 'root' and the group 'wheel', the > permissions are rwxr-xr-x. If you only want read access, this looks fine. Fabian -- http://www.fabiankeil.de
