all boxes here are linux, so there's no renaming going on.
I can write,mv,rm on both the client (to the mounted file
system) and the same directory on the server.
The only thing I can't do is from the 2.6 client is
to overwrite a file on the server.

I did this on the samba server and the client could no
longer login (passwd="" didn't work anymore, and neither did
the real root passwd, which is what I expect the
administrator is). I looked around with google to see what I
was supposed to do different and couldn't see anything in
particular. There was a whole lot of talk about domain
servers which didn't help.
here's a bit of my smb.conf on the server
[tmp]
comment = Temporary file space
path = /tmp
read only = No
guest ok = Yes
How am I supposed to login now, or is this an exercise for
the student?
Thanks Joe
