I have installed Samba2.2.12 and I am able to see all directories, etc through Windows 7 by logging in.  Problem is, everything is read only. 

When i access my pogoplug without Samba it is not read only.

I have experiment with CHMOD 777 for one of the folders.  I was then able to create a folder, but then this folder was read only.

I believe I could CHMOD 777 the whole drive but that still would not make new folders created non read only.

Here is my smb.conf:

#smb.conf begin

# Global Parameters
[global]
workgroup = WORKGROUP
netbios name = Pogoplug Samba2
encrypt passwords = yes
security = user

[home]
path = /tmp/.cemnt/mnt_sda1/
write list = Nic, Bianka, Seppel
browseable = yes
read only = no
writable = yes
guest ok = yes

#smb.conf end

Thanks for your help.
