[ILUG] samba problems (rather Access programmers)

[Cathal Garvey]

Assuming I've interpreted your mail correctly, add something along the lines

additional info) .....

** This configuration is NOT secure - check the examples or man pages for
usage of "write list" and "create mask" and other security paramaters.

[ACCDOC]
comment = Docs Stuff
path = /home/soltsys/accdocs
public = yes
writeable = yes

[SOLTSYS]
comment = Docs Stuff
path = /home/soltsys
public = yes
writeable = yes
