🚧 Unfinished. Come back later :)

Goal

Connect pendrive, share with samba, transfer files to it

How-To

Add this to [global]:

allow insecure wide links = Yes

Add this to [homes]:

follow symlinks = Yes
wide links = Yes

This didn't work out! The drive seems empty without write (and read?) permissions.

Mounting as my user might solve the problem!
