i've tried the howto's and i think my brain is shutting down. i've
tried trimming down the useless entries to what i have changed.

<----------------------------------[ SNIP ]---------------------------->
[homes]
comment = Home Directories
browseable = no
writable = yes

[R2314]
comment = public files
path = /misc/R2314
writeable = yes
read only = no
browseable = yes
public = no
printable = no
valid users = hbrhodes, klrhodes
create mask = 0765



Dumb question - can you see hbrhodes and klrhodes home directory?
(Depending on the Windows user.) Also, can hbrhodes and klrhodes
write to /misc/R2314? If not, you may want to use "force user" to
set the uid used when Samba writes to the share.
