Can the Agent write to a samba share?

Hi guys

I'm having problems getting the OCS Agent to write to a samba share (chmod 777).

It runs as username: computer$ which is a service account on windows machines.

I have no active directory or domain (Linux backend).

Does anybody have any experience with the OCS Agent writing to samba shares?

Ok, what I did to get this working on short term is:

In smb.conf I made a guest user.

And default a bad user to guest.

This allows the bad user serviceaccount$ to write as guest.

I do not like this though because it allows non-users to access the share I write to with OCS.
