Another quick Samba Question

[Robert Meyer]

Yep, you have it right.  Samba settings only indicate whether samba
will allow something to happen but when it comes down to it, standard
Unix permissions prevail.  If a directory is not accessable, it won't be
accessable from samba, either.

Hope this helps.

Cheers!
