Ahh now you say! They are not supposed to be able to delete it? I would
just assuming here, would think there is a QB Administrator to do that
job and not a regular user. Although I took the time to read the
Canadian and US docs for the linux side I did not see anything
pertaining to that. Maybe there is something in the Windows side Client
Application?

BUT: As long as your AD authenticated user can w&r,they should be able
to delete a file from the mapped share. But in essence what is happening
is QBs Daemons are taking over and changing perms on the files.

I really think you need to have a heart to heart with Intuit. Here is
another but. All the docs I read support SUSE EntL. RHEL and CentOS uses
gamin and Suse uses fam-server. All the docs refer to fam-server and not
gamin.
