I'm trying to point my apache httpd.conf to a samba share (long story, after hours and hours of dealing with samba, ftp, and all the bs..). I tried /Volumes/Sharename but I just get access denied when I start apache and go to a page.. any idears?

They're mounted in /Volumes/<sharename>

Note it will be in ALL CAPS -- but why not verify on the desktop of the machine that the share is already there? Or just do 'ls' -- you should see it ;-)

You sure it's not a permissions issue?

Hey there.

Ok, I checked *again* under volumes -

LS reads out:
harddrive nerocom

nerocom is the share I want.

In apache's HTTPD.conf

documentroot is set to /VOLUMES/NEROCOM

I can access this volume from the desktop, and it's set to full read/write in windows. I still get a 403 forbidden when I try to access it, however...


odd.. I checked the permissions fo the file with ls -l and found this..
drwx------ 1 josh admin 16384 18 Jan 22:20 nerocom

looks like the permissions are not setup correctly in OSX?

Edit: I checked the permissions of the webserver directory:

drwxrwxr-x 23 root admin 782 18 Jan 22:59 WebServer

How do I get the permissions to chage for the shared directory? I tried chmod 777 nerocom which didn't work

Well I got it worked out.. I think..
I just mounted the directory in terminal using the root account.
