How should folder permissions look for the shared folder?

I created a SAMBA folder on one PC and can see it, but can't access it. I've used the search feature on the forums and can't find the answer. I've created firewall rules to open it up, and have a user and password. I can see the folder from other machines, but can't access it. What do I need to do?

There was a check box to remove the floppy disk and cd rom and I checked them both, but this didn't work. I then disabled the cd rom itself on the dialogue that had both controllers listed. This was done on a fresh install with Mabox and Archcraft images if that matters.

Well, it seems like virtualbox didn't like how I was removing the CD rom drive. Now thanks to that comment, I tried it a different way and it worked. I had previously just unchecked the floppy and cd rom and it wouldn't boot without those. Now it does. Thanks!

Even after installing, it won't boot without it.

I've searched around and thought I'd try here. I can install a distro in Virtualbox, create a user during the installation process, it will not let me login using that user. It always defaults to the live user. What am I missing?

Thanks Charlie!

I don't want to remove systemd, just enlightenment. I was just fiddling with it. Like I said, I don't know enough to have strong opinions on systemd, I suppose antix would be for me if I did.
