I have an external usb drive shared via samba from my primary computer. I am accessing the share from another Arch box. I use fstab to mount the share, and I can browse the contents without issue. However, I do not have write access to the share (access denied). I would just use NFS, but I also have a windows laptop that needs accces to the share as well.
Here is my fstab entry:
//10.50.100.130/share /mnt/share cifs users,noatime,rw,username=******,password=********,workgroup=Mygroup,ip=10.50.100.130, 0 0
Here is my smb.conf:
# Samba config file created using SWAT
# from UNKNOWN (127.0.0.1)
# Date: 2012/02/20 16:27:59
[global]
workgroup = Mygroup
server string = Samba Server
log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
max log size = 50
dns proxy = No
hosts allow = 192.168.1. 10.50.100. 127.
idmap config * : backend = tdb
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/spool/samba
printable = Yes
print ok = Yes
browseable = No
[share]
comment = Shared Folder
path = /media/c9641ee4-363e-4cc5-960d-e608cf34ddad/share
valid users =*******
write list = *******
writable = yes
read only = No
Any idea what the issue might be?

Hmm, I'm not a samba expert, but here is a snippet of my smb.conf which allows an authenticated user to have write access..
Maybe this will help point you in the right direction..
[global]
workgroup = WORKGROUP
server string = Samba Server
netbios name = ******
security = user
username map = /etc/samba/smbusers
[external]
comment = External Drive
path = /mnt/external/
available = yes
browsable = yes
public = yes
writable = yes

Turned out to be a permission error with the directory on the share. I was sure I had already checked this, but evidently I missed it.
