the freeb program is in /usr/share/freeb.
When freeb creates a hcfa file it is located in freeb/public and has the following access for example.
-rw-r–r-- 1 root root 1970 May 11 15:24 2007-05-11-1-7989.hcfa
I’m trying to get a windows user (samba) to be able to access, change and save this file (along with others)
How to I change this functionality so that any samba (windows) user can edit this file and save it?

Edit the Samba configuration file smb.conf and add a share to the public directory.
Your path and information may vary from the example shown below. Just modify to suite your needs.
nano /etc/smaba/smb.conf
Add the following to the file
[public]
comment = EMR billing output
path = /usr/share/freeb/public
read only = No
browseable = Yes
Save the file
Restart Samba
/etc/init.d/sambad restart
From the windows machine map a network drive to the share called public.
This should get you started. You can add more to public share in the samba config like restricting it to a user or group.
