   A Samba share has the following configuration: 'read only = no', 'valid users = @staff', 'force user = nobody'. The Linux directory permissions are 755 with owner 'root' and group 'staff'. A user in the staff group tries to create a file but receives an 'Access denied' error. What is the most likely cause?

   • AThe 'read only = no' is overridden by the 'force user' parameter.
   • BThe 'force user = nobody' overrides the user's permissions, and 'nobody' does not have write permission on the directory.
   • CThe user is not in the staff group on the Linux system.
   • DThe 'valid users' parameter restricts the user from writing.
