I was just about to post the same thing after I thought about it, as gamin operates on the files outside of Samba... They did provide a guide, but its weak and the setup from what I can see is not secure. They suggest: # chmod -R 775 /directory # chgrp -R groupname /directory [share_name] path = /directory comment = samba share for company files valid users = user1 user2 user3 public = no writable = yes printable = no create mask = 0765 Not sure why "other" gets anything? I don't even see how that cures the issues imposed? I think that continued access by the client works, it's just when they try to delete a company... The only thing I can think of is a cron job with a find excluding the lost+found performing a chmod/chown? That's just silly though. What a POS. Thanks! jlc
