    problems installing samba on my router

    I have read the tourial, but still have some problems.

    My disk is allready formated to fat32, so i started the guide from where we enable SAMBA

    The problem starts when i try saving the changes i did in smb.conf.

    First i pressed "i" , wrote:

    [global]
    workgroup = <workgroup name>
    guest account = nobody
    security = share
    browseable = yes
    guest ok = yes
    guest only = no
    log level = 1
    max log size = 100
    encrypt passwords = yes
    dns proxy = no

    [fat32]
    path=/tmp/harddisk
    writeable = yes
    browseable = yes
    force user = admin

    Then i press "ESC" , but how do i save my work ? when i press q , the messesage "q" is not implementet - what do i do wrong ?

    Can i make the smb.conf in notebook, save as smb.conf , and then ftp the file to root in my harddrive ?

    it's been a long time since i played with my wl500, but what you could search for help on the vi editor. From what you are posting, i guess this is what is blocking you.
