Another samba post...sigh

OK.

I found another thread about samba here: I installed samba, but the samba.conf file does not exist - #14 by d-air1

I copied the contents of the SMB.CONF offered by: anon62796363

Of course I modified it to fit my use case.

NOW-I got RWX access to the media share form the server itself, my EOS desktop and my Windows 2016 server.

HOWEVER, I also have managed to share out my users home profile directory and I need to undo that…sigh.

This is the new smb.conf located in /etc/samba

# Global parameters
[global]
        log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
        max log size = 100
        ntlm auth = ntlmv1-permitted
        server role = standalone server
        server string = Samba Server
        workgroup = LOCAL.LAN
        idmap config * : backend = tdb
        hosts allow = 127. 192.168.0.


[homes]
        browseable = No
        comment = Home Directories
        inherit acls = Yes
        read only = No
        valid users = %S %D%W%S


[printers]
        browseable = No
        comment = All Printers
        path = /usr/spool/samba
        printable = Yes


[MediaShare]
        comment = Media Share
        create mask = 0777
        guest ok = Yes
        path = /mnt/Media/
        read only = No
        valid users = myuser



and this is testparm output:
