I would try to do what he sais.

>which fileshareset
/usr/kde/3.3/bin/fileshareset

>ll /usr/kde/3.3/bin/fileshareset
-rws--x--x 1 root root 10894 Jun 29 16:40 /usr/kde/3.3/bin/fileshareset

If this is so, specify the share as root.

use smb.conf (/etc/samba/smb.conf (Location probably depends on your installation)):

[free]
comment = Comment
path = /mnt/foo/bar
read only = No
create mask = 0766
guest ok = Yes

or something like this (see man-pages)

This is my smb.conf:
Quote:
localhost samba # cat smb.conf
[global]
workgroup = LOKALNO
netbios name = eleanor
encrypt passwords = yes
security = user
valid users = eleanor,root

[all]
comment = eleanor's root directory
path = /
force user = root
read only = no
create mask = 0766
browseable = yes
public = share
guest ok = yes


If I want to connect to my samba server it gives me the output:
Quote:
localhost samba # smbclient -L 192.168.1.3
read_socket_with_timeout: timeout read. read error = Connection reset by peer.
protocol negotiation failed

* Do you have a "root"-account in your samba? (afaik you can't simply use the normal linux accounts)
* you write "force user = root" and later "guest ok = yes"... !?

I changed that in:
Quote:
localhost samba # cat smb.conf
[global]
workgroup = LOKALNO
netbios name = eleanor
encrypt passwords = yes
security = user
valid users = eleanor, root

[test]
path = /tmp
read only = no
browseable = yes


And I have root account and eleanor account!

Now I set my sabma up. I still have printing problems over samba. I have printer on other computer (using windows) and I want to copy from this computer (using gentoo) to the other one. What to do?

Look at this:
Quote:
localhost eleanor # smbclient -L *.*.*.*
Password:
Domain=[HP11766121773] OS=[Windows 5.1] Server=[Windows 2000 LAN Manager]

Sharename Type Comment
--------- ---- -------
Tiskalnik Printer Microsoft Office Document Image Writer
IPC$ IPC Remote IPC
D$ Disk Default share
print$ Disk Printer Drivers
SharedDocs Disk
C Disk
ADMIN$ Disk Remote Admin
HP1300 Printer hp LaserJet 1300 PCL 6
C$ Disk Default share


So here we can find out that printer is on 192.168.1.4/HP1300.

If I do "smb://192.168.1.4/HP1300" in konqueror I get: An error occurred while loading smb://192.168.1.4/HP1300.

what do you want to copy? files?

Why not create a simple "shared folder" with writing rights to everyone? I think a folder like this is *always* a handy thing in a network:

Code:
[free]
        comment = Free folder
        path = /mnt/hda6/free folder/
        read only = No
        create mask = 0766
        guest ok = Yes


no problem with rights - even win95-machines can write here...

I did that, but anyway. When I try to copy files on printer, it gives me that output:

Quote:
Printer State: idle, accepting jobs.
"Unable to connect to SAMBA host, will retry in 60 seconds...foomatic-rip version $Revision: 3.43.2.6 $ running..."
Device URI: smb://HP11766121773/HP1300


What did I do wrong?

Oh, I suppose this is is *not* a samba-problem, but a problem of your cups/foomatic-installation, isn't it?
