samba running > but no write access

Sigh. Search for NTFS and Samba. You'll see that NTFS => read-only! It even says so in the manual. Solution is to partition to FAT or ext

Well, I'm still a bit of a n00b, so to contribute I'll tackle the easy ones and the rest of you can concentrate on helping me

this was a simple and quick answer. i was not sure about that the problem ist ntfs. there have been some announces that ntfs is now writeble...

to hugo: if this was too much for ya and ur annoyed about people like me, maybe u have to close the forum to people who only know everthing. I thought the forum was also to help people with lesser knowledge...but maybe I missed something...however I searched the whole forum and i did not get the solution until now. Call me stupid if u want to, but there that much threads in this forum, that it ist sometimes not possible to hit the right thread.

First, I'm not managing this forum, I'm just a normal user which learned the same way than you.
Second, this forum has rules, and the first one is to read the howto before asking a question. The answer is first in the manual, then in a samba howto from the forum, and also in many posts that you couldn't find.
If you were suspecting a problem with NTFS, why didn't you ask for a simple check if the read only rule still apply with latest firmwares? About searching, the simple fact to type NTFS in the forum gives you many threads where this has been discussed.
If I was doing the How to, I would be considering as a slap in my face the fact you are still asking question for thinks writen clearly inside it. What do you considere as the most respectfull behaviour: to read something that a member spend time to write properly; or to clutter the forum with the same question every week, so that other members cannot find a clear answer when searching?

Linux world is a community working on some rules. First one is to document yourself before asking a question. Second one is to accept the fact that somebody tells you you haven t done the first part properly.

Read this http://www.inet.bg/faq/netiquete.html , then type NTFS in the search field.
