Ok -- I think I've narrowed this down a bit.
Drive # 2 in my system is a Win98 formatted drive. I wanted to leave it
that way just for giggles . . . I didn't know what was on it. Mandrake
mounted it as /mnt/windows. It's owned by root. I can't touch it unless I
log in as root. I guess I must have copied MP3's from my login directory
to that drive . . . I swore I copied them direct to the Samba mapping, but
from what I've tried, I must have been in error.
So, the short answer is, you can't map a Win98 (or any other OS I'm
assuming??) drive to Samba because the permissions will be wrong. You can
read, but you can't write. In a way it makes sense . . .
I guess what I'll do is just partition that other 2nd drive as a Linux
native format and that should solve the problem. Right?
