I am setting up a samba server. When I place the folders that Samba will use inside of the /tmp folder, everything works fine. However, when I try to use a directory that I created, it will not let me access it from another computer. I have given public permissions to everyone on this folder (chmod a+rwx), and still, nothing. I am using the built in Samba users(not the Linux users). Any help?
