GHTS Troubleshooting 2

The End-of-Night transfer program does not create the appropriate directory in soaric7:/home3/observer/GOODMAN_DATA/<institution>/  were <institution> is one of BRAZIL, CHILE, MSU, NOAO, OTHER or UNC, and transfer files:

otherwise you will get a small window prompting you for a user name and passowrd. Provide the appropriate credentials and this will activate the Samba share. Now you will see the folders as above. Once both Samba shares are running and visible, the End-of-Night file transfer should work correctly.
