DOS + MS Client (SMB/CIFS) read only access

#1 Post by czezz » 07 Jun 2012 02:17

I have installed FreeDOS 1.1 and MS Client 3.0.
Now I can easily access shared folder on my Windows XP (folder is set up with full access to everyone and to specific user).

However, if I connect from my DOS machine I have READ-ONLY access
But I have full RW access if I connect to this share form another Windows machine or Linux box.
What did I forget to set up on Dos machine ? There must be something wrong with it.

I dunno but try giving GUEST user r/w access and see if that lets you write files. It's an option in the Windows share dialog for the folder.

Also so if you can make a file in a folder, as opposed to the root directory.

Hello and thanks for reply.
I have just did a quick test with failed this same :(.

However, I have found this:[url="http://www.veder.com/nwdsk/"]http://www.veder.com/nwdsk/[/url]
This creates bootable FreeDOS img/floppy with MS Client. When I run this it just works. I have full access to shared folder on WinXP.
With my installation of DOS still not :(

Any clue what is wrong ???

I'm just replying to say that I don't know. Maybe someone else reading will know.

I have simply reinstalled MS Client and it works. No idea what was wrong.
