That's more interesting, since that ought to work! I think you need to set /etc/config/samba to: ---- config samba option 'name' 'openwrt' option 'workgroup' 'WORKGROUP' option 'description' 'openwrt' option 'homes' '1' config sambashare option 'name' 'tmp' option 'path' '/tmp' option 'read_only' 'no' option 'guest_ok' 'no' option 'create_mask' '0700' option 'dir_mask' '0700' #option 'users' 'abc' ---- Next, modify "/etc/samba/smb.conf.template" directly and add: wins support = yes to enable the WINS server, restart Samba on the router, then restart all the computers. -- Robert Bradley
