I have been trying to share folders from my main PC which is running Ubuntu 10.04. I have been able to figure out Samba enough to get my a couple of folders shared, but I have been unable to share any folders which are on my external harddrive. After entering the path in my smb.conf file they appear on the network but I am unable to navigate to them. When trying to navigate to them through the network folder on the pc they are actually connected to I get an "Unable to mount location: Failed to mount windows share" dialog box. On the windows pc I am trying to share with I get, "Windows cannot acces \\Josh-Desktop\name of folder"
My smb.conf file looks like this:
[Home]
comment = Home
path = /home/josh
browsable = yes
guest ok = yes
read only = no
create mask = 0755
[share]
comment = Ubuntu File Server Share
path = /srv/samba/share
browsable = yes
guest ok = yes
read only = no
create mask = 0755
[Music]
comment = Music
path = /media/My\ Book/Music/
browsable = yes
guest ok = yes
read only = no
create mask = 0755
[Videos]
comment = Videos
path = /media/My\ Book/Videos/
browsable = yes
guest ok = yes
read only = no
create mask = 0755
That folders I cannot access are Music and Videos. What am I doing wrong?
