@mikec: the reason to use samba is to be able to share files with any windows machine without installing anything.

Just like I said here already

The samba package looks promising, but is missing a dependency so I can't safely install it. Also I really don't want to install something like this from devel. Not yet anyway.
Suppose I'll have to wait a little more.

You can use samba through chroot, and bind mounts. I use it that way.

A slightly different approach would be to use Wizard Mounter to mount shared PC resources on the N900 and move the files that way..

I know it doesn't solve your editing issue, but it's something..

tinysmb might be a solution, installing it now.

tinysmb has worked nicely for me, it is useful for working around some of the problems of not getting Wizard Mounter functional at all.

For security, create a new share directory (MyShare or something) at the *same* level as MyDocs, because the default MyDocs share makes far too much available to machines logging on.

I have not been able to get the password function operating, either via user interface or by editing the config file. So it's necessary to tighten directory access, & start the server only when needed for file transfers, then stop it.

Install samba and samba-common-bin in chroot debian, something like this
in a terminal as user (i use only lenny and backport-lenny)
$ debbie
$ sudo aptitude install samba-common-bin samba
$ sudo smbpasswd user
and give your w$ password ...
That's it !
Now, you can mount //n900IP/user from your PC (as user)
Each time you want to launch samba again (after shutdown the n900):
$ debbie sudo /etc/init.d/samba start
