Vim

Cannot edit smb.conf because VIM will not work ans stated only read file. I am logged in as the root.

Interesting, can you past the output of "ls -al /usr/local/etc/smb.conf"?

How about if you do this:

% gksu gvim /usr/local/etc/smb.conf

I can confirm this on the latest june snapshot: the file /usr/local/etc/smb.conf has 444 as permission and therefore is not editable even by root. In the meantime the problem can be fixed doing a:

chmod 644 /usr/local/etc/smb.conf

and the following command can help finding other files with the same problem:

find /usr/local/etc -type f -perm -u=w

Odd, that must be how the port installs the conf file, since we don't
include it with any of our stuff. I've manually changed it to 644 though
now
