Operating Systems Linux how to rectify the MS Office problem Post 302272562 by otheus on Wednesday 31st of December 2008 01:29:27 AM

Okay, with existing files you might have a permissions problem.

Install and use the smbclient command-line utilities. These act like FTP, except that they use samba. Run the program on your server, connect to your server's SMB share, and try to upload a Microsoft file (not onto itself, obviously, but into a different directory or with a new name).

Also, in you next post, attach your smb.conf file. Scrub any passwords, please.
(click on "Go Advanced" and then scroll to below the input form and click on "Manage Files". From there you can upload a text file.)

chfn(1) 						      General Commands Manual							   chfn(1)

Name
       chfn - change system finger entry

Syntax
       chfn [ loginname ]

Description
       The  command  is used to change information about users.  This information is used by the program, among others.  It consists of the user's
       real name, office room number, office phone number, and home phone number. The command prompts the user for each field.	 Included  in  the
       prompt  is  a  default  value,  which is enclosed between brackets.  The default value is accepted simply by typing <CR>.  To enter a blank
       field, type the word `none'.  This is an example:
       % chfn
       Changing finger information for doe
       Name [John Doe]:
       Office number [ABC-1/K0]: DEF-2/K1
       Office Phone []: 1863
       Home Phone [5771546]: none

       The command allows phone numbers to be entered with or without hyphens.	No entries may contain colons, commas, or control characters.

       It is a good idea to run after running to make sure everything is the way you want it.

       The optional argument loginname is used to change another person's finger information.  This can only be done by the superuser.

Restrictions
       The encoding of the office and extension information is installation dependent.

       Because two users may try to write the file at once, a synchronization method was developed.  On rare occasions, a message that	the  pass-
       word file is "busy" will be printed.  In this case, sleeps for a while and then tries to write to the file again.

       If the passwd entry is distributed from another host will not modify it.
