I have followed the answer on this post Simple Samba Share - NO PASSWORD
So my server shows up under network,I can connect and view the list of shares however I cannot open any of my shares. Windows times out and says "is not accessible, you might not have permission.....etc"
I think I setup permissions correctly, unless I have missed something.
I have chmod'ed the folder that te share links to. I have chown'ed the folder to nobody.nogroup.
