Buffalo Terastation with Intel Atom D2700 and 2 GB RAM
I have mapped my Webmin / Debian NAS as a Windows 11 network drive using Samba, but for some reason, it’s read-only. I can’t write to it unless I use the File Manager in Webmin. I’d like to be able to use this strictly in Windows without having to bother with Webmin if possible.
I’m a solo user, and this is a NAS appliance in my living room. No fancy business stuff, no test environments, no nothing. Just simple storage.
Might there be something with user permissions that I’m missing?
Thank you. I reviewed that documentation and checked my configuration. I restarted Samba after some tweaks and remapped the network drive. But, when I try to paste the file, I still get this. So, no bueno.
Here’s my smb.conf config file. Do I need to tweak something to make the permissions work in Windows?

Perhaps no one uses Samba these days (I often wonder if anyone uses MS Windows these days) this could account for no one being quick to respond
and Webmin is generally seen as a server side management tool for Linux systems.
I didn’t even know it was an option in Webmin -> Un-used Modules !
Your screen shot looks like a windows client, can you not just run the file manager in admin mode (I guess admin has permissions to all directories) and find out what user actually owns the file/directory you are trying to open. This is only guess work as I have not used windows this century
@mediagiant Enable the SMB 3.0 or higher on your Webmin as that SMB 1.0 win will be otherwise very fleeting!! This is due to Microsoft being on the last to very last stages of removing SMB 1.0 all together. Anyway Windows 11 24H2 will be removing guest fall back and introducing requirement for at minimum client server signing of the connection, so thus enable the requirement for it on your Samba server through Webmin.
The SMB 1.0 protocol also has serious security vulnerability issues, so using SMB 3.0 or higher is recommended.
The Synology NAS may not have had that issue as it was using following a security update, a newer SMB protocol than 1.0 possibly 2.0, 3.0 or even 3.11. The Windows 11 client uses SMB 3.11 protocol.
@stefan1959 I wouldn’t recommend enabling SMB 1.0 as it has serious security vulnerability issues. Instead link or show how to enable SMB 3.0 on a Samba server through the config file or Webmin.
Just to test out my solution, I went back to Windows and disabled the SMB 1.0 option. After all, if my Webmin server told me it was on 3.11, why would it matter?
Well, it did. Then I couldn’t connect to it at all, not even read-only. So, I went back and re-enabled the 1.0 option, and it worked again. But I’m worried it won’t work after a while like you said.

The lines in the configuration file for the SMB v3 and the connection signing need be written, like from this link. Each config option, then has an = followed by the value on an, separate line for each new config option.
Yes, of course. I had tried that too. So, here’s what I have. It did restart, but in Windows, the drive is not accessible with SMB 1.0 turned off.
Sorry, I feel like I’m missing something painfully obvious, but it’s still not working.

#
# This is the main Samba configuration file. You should read the
# smb.conf(5) manual page in order to understand the options listed
# here. Samba has a huge number of configurable options most of which
# are not shown in this example
#
# Some options that are often worth tuning have been included as
# commented-out examples in this file.
# - When such options are commented with ";", the proposed setting
# differs from the default Samba behaviour
# - When commented with "#", the proposed setting is the default
# behaviour of Samba but the option is considered important
# enough to be mentioned here
#
# NOTE: Whenever you modify this file you should run the command
# "testparm" to check that you have not made any basic syntactic
# errors.

## Browsing/Identification ###
# Change this to the workgroup/NT-domain name your Samba server will part of
#### Networking ####
# The specific set of interfaces / networks to bind to
# This can be either the interface name or an IP address/netmask;
# interface names are normally preferred
; interfaces = 127.0.0.0/8 eth0
# Only bind to the named interfaces and/or networks; you must use the
# 'interfaces' option above to use this.
# It is recommended that you enable this feature if your Samba machine is
# not protected by a firewall or is a firewall itself. However, this
# option cannot handle dynamic or non-broadcast interfaces correctly.
; bind interfaces only = yes
#### Debugging/Accounting ####
# This tells Samba to use a separate log file for each machine
# that connects
# Cap the size of the individual log files (in KiB).
# We want Samba to only log to /var/log/samba/log.{smbd,nmbd}.
# Append syslog@1 if you want important messages to be sent to syslog too.
# Do something sensible when Samba crashes: mail the admin a backtrace
####### Authentication #######
# Server role. Defines in which mode Samba will operate. Possible
# values are "standalone server", "member server", "classic primary
# domain controller", "classic backup domain controller", "active
# directory domain controller".
#
# Most people will want "standalone server" or "member server".
# Running as "active directory domain controller" will require first
# running "samba-tool domain provision" to wipe databases and create a
# new domain.
# This boolean parameter controls whether Samba attempts to sync the Unix
# password with the SMB password when the encrypted SMB password in the
# passdb is changed.
# For Unix password sync to work on a Debian GNU/Linux system, the following
# parameters must be set (thanks to Ian Kahan <<kahan@informatik.tu-muenchen.de> for
# sending the correct chat script for the passwd program in Debian Sarge).
# This boolean controls whether PAM will be used for password changes
# when requested by an SMB client instead of the program listed in
# 'passwd program'. The default is 'no'.
# This option controls how unsuccessful authentication attempts are mapped
# to anonymous connections
########## Domains ###########
#
# The following settings only takes effect if 'server role = classic
# primary domain controller', 'server role = classic backup domain controller'
# or 'domain logons' is set
#
# It specifies the location of the user's
# profile directory from the client point of view) The following
# required a [profiles] share to be setup on the samba server (see
# below)
; logon path = \\%N\profiles\%U
# Another common choice is storing the profile in the user's home directory
# (this is Samba's default)
# logon path = \\%N\%U\profile
# The following setting only takes effect if 'domain logons' is set
# It specifies the location of a user's home directory (from the client
# point of view)
; logon drive = H:
# logon home = \\%N\%U
# The following setting only takes effect if 'domain logons' is set
# It specifies the script to run during logon. The script must be stored
# in the [netlogon] share
# NOTE: Must be store in 'DOS' file format convention
; logon script = logon.cmd
# This allows Unix users to be created on the domain controller via the SAMR
# RPC pipe. The example command creates a user account with a disabled Unix
# password; please adapt to your needs
; add user script = /usr/sbin/adduser --quiet --disabled-password --gecos "" %u
# This allows machine accounts to be created on the domain controller via the
# SAMR RPC pipe.
# The following assumes a "machines" group exists on the system
; add machine script = /usr/sbin/useradd -g machines -c "%u machine account" -d /var/lib/samba -s /bin/false %u
