Hi there. I’m not even remotely an expert on these things, just running a home setup, so I’m the sole admin. So, I’ve probably done something wrong, but I don’t know what.
I set up Samba from my Webmin machine, but it’s only allowing reads, no writes. I can read and write when I log into Webmin, but it’s far more convenient to add files via Samba.
If I go to Servers > Samba Windows File Sharing, I see myself set up as the admin and with read-write access.
Is there something else I need to do to give myself access to write files to the server in Windows?
Notice in the screenshot that the directory media is set to Read-write for all known users.
I don’t think it’s out of the ordinary to set up a network share in Windows from a NAS. My Synology NAS, which I use as a backup to the Webmin NAS, is fully accessible in Windows for reading and writing. But I want to write to my Webmin NAS from my Windows PC without having to log into Webmin and go through File Manager. Yes, I can do that, but it’s annoying.
My only question is why I can’t write to my Webmin share.
