Ok, its been Years since I tried SAMBA and its good to know that as easy as the raspi is, im not any better at getting it running here than I am on mandriva or RH or PCLOS or.....
I even followed a step by step and its not working. Probably because no step by step shows the use of an external USB hard drive. But thats what I have. Seagate 3GN USB external HD.
Heres what sudo DF shows:
/dev/sda2 3906885628 2842494236 1064391392 73% /media/Seagate Backup Plus
now if you could PLEASE just tell me what goes in smb.conf I would be forever greatful. I mean I have tried ever combination I can think of and nothing woirks. my SMB.CONF ony has a few lines in it, so it shouldnt be a big deal. but somehow I keep screwing it up.
any and all help appreciated.
thanks
