 In response to hardware failing in my Myth backend box, I removed the HDD
 containing my videos and recordings directories and installed it onto a
 ClearOS server as a samba share, called /sevenfifty.  At the end of the
 Mythbackend setup process, Mythbackend correctly writes .test files to the
 /sevenfifty/videos/ and /sevenfifty/recordings/ samba shares.  But the
 Mythbackend setup program still issues a warning saying that the
 /sevenfifty/videos/ and /sevenfifty/recordings/ folders are not writable.
 I can confirm from a Windows client that the .test files have been
 written, I can also store and retrieve files from/to the folders from the
 Windows client to the share, MythFrontEnd will play the existing
 recordings and videos, and I can putty into Myth box and have it make and
 remove a .test directory from the /sevenfifty/videos/ and
 sevenfifty/recordings/ samba shares. But the backend will not record
 anything new. Myth version is 0.24.1
