I want to access Linux folder from windows system
For that I edited smb.conf file and add these entry

[Deepali]
path = /Storage/deepali
writeable = yes
create mask = 0765
guest ok = yes
and also othere entry’s like global etc …

I also add a user name called deepali in samba user list as admin right (RW)

Default Re: cant access folder in windows

Because you don't have write priviledge to write into the Linux folder. What Linux
distro you are using? Change your smb.conf file settings to 'create mask=0777' and try now.
See if it works.
