Ubuntu – how to access and write to the server

I know I am very new to ubuntu. I’ve made the switch almost completely and am very rarely using windows anymore.

However I have a file server setup at home and was accessing it from windows xp mapping it as a network drive. The problem I had when starting to use Ubuntu was that although I could access the files I couldn’t save them back to the server.

I found the answer in the samba config file. Permissions are everything.

It works!

Theodore Roosevelt said “The best executive is one who has sense enough to pick good people to do what he wants done, and self-restraint enough to keep from meddling with them while they do it.”

I have enjoyed many of the articles that have been written by Freelance Switch. Even though they are only 6 months old they have build an impressive following.

I especially liked this tool the hourly rate calculator.
