Whenever I go to my network shares on windows, I am prompted with a request for username and password on the folder I want to access. Most of the time it won't let me log in with the username and password I set up, but eventually if I do log in, I am just prompted with a window that says "You do not have permission to access \\ipaddress\destinationfolder please contact you network admin"
On my Linux side where the share is being hosted I have a smbpasswd set for the user, the privileges are all set to rw on the folder, and I have the following listed in my smb.conf file:
[destinationfolder]
path = /place/destinationfolder
valid users = @assigneduser
force group = assigneduser
read only = no
guest ok = yes
browsable = yes
create mask = 0775
directory mask = 0775
Additionally all of the smbstatus fields turn up blank
<windows share ip address>\<windows share user name>for your user. Test the share with another windows box first.
