I want to create a Public folder that has full RW access. The problem with my configuration is that Windows users have no issues as guests (they can RW and Delete), my Ubuntu client can't do the same. We can only write and read, but not create or delete.

Here is the my smb.conf from my server:

[global]
    workgroup = WORKGROUP
    netbios name = FILESERVER
    server string = TurnKey FileServer

    os level = 20
    security = user
    map to guest = Bad Password
    passdb backend = tdbsam
    null passwords = yes

    admin users = root
    encrypt passwords = true
    obey pam restrictions = yes
    pam password change = yes
    unix password sync = yes
    passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
    passwd chat = *Enter\snew\s*\spassword:* %n\n *Retype\snew\s*\spassword:* %n\n *password\supdated\ssuccessfully* .

    add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd -m '%u' -g users -G users
    delete user script = /usr/sbin/userdel -r '%u'
    add group script = /usr/sbin/groupadd '%g'
    delete group script = /usr/sbin/groupdel '%g'
    add user to group script = /usr/sbin/usermod -G '%g' '%u'

    guest account = nobody

    syslog = 0
    log file = /var/log/samba/samba.log
    max log size = 1000

    wins support = yes
    dns proxy = no

    socket options = TCP_NODELAY
    panic action = /usr/share/samba/panic-action %d


[homes]
    comment = Home Directory
    browseable = no
    read only = no
    valid users = %S

[storage]
    create mask = 0777
    directory mask = 0777
    browseable = yes
    comment = Public Share
    writeable = yes
    public = yes
    path = /srv/storage

The following FSTAB entry doesn't yield full R/W access to the share.

//192.168.0.5/storage /media/myname/TK-Public/ cifs rw 0 0

This doesn't work either

//192.168.0.5/storage /media/myname/TK-Public/ cifs rw,guest,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,noperm 0 0

Using the following location in Nemo/Nautilus w/o the Share being mounted does work:

smb://192.168.0.5/storage/

Extra info. I just noticed that if I copy a file to the share after mounting, my Ubuntu client immediately make "nobody" be the owner, and the group "no group" has read and write, with everyone else as read-only.

What am I doing wrong?
