[Bug 498152] Re: Problem with Ubuntu 9.10 to Windows XP file share

[Zachary D. Skelton]

See about getting that error log, it's location is in your smb.conf
file.  Also, run `smbd --version`.  If you are running Version 3.4.0,
then this link shows that the particular bug you are working with is
fixed with Version 3.4.3
http://old.nabble.com/ubuntu-9.10-samba-windows-permission-errors-td26412601.html

Samba4 is located in the universe repository so if you need to update,
ensure that you have it enabled.
