SAMBA Setup - read-only error

[apostrophe]

Hi. Sorry if this is a stupid question but I'm using firmware 1.9.2.7-7g on WL500gx and trying to follow macsat.com instructions to set up SAMBA.

When I type the first command I get the following error.

[admin@(none) root]$ mkdir /opt/etc/samba
mkdir: Cannot create directory `/opt/etc/samba': No such file or directory

if I change to the /etc directory I get...

[admin@(none) etc]$ mkdir /samba
mkdir: Cannot create directory `/samba': Read-only file system

Everything else on the WL500gx seems to behave as expected.

Can some one help?

Thanks

Fred :)

Remove the '/'. You're trying to create the directory under the root.


[admin@(none) etc]$ mkdir samba
