And all users accessing that share of course, although the sgid will always set the gid correctly, assuming the user can actually write there which is easier to accomplish if they share that group. There's probably a way to add apache to that group with a configuration on the local machine so it doesn't have to query your ADS/NMB server. Not sure about the details but the docs at http://samba.org/samba/docs/ are invaluable. And if you use php applications with safe mode you need php_admin_value safe_mode_gid on so apache accesses them on gid not uid. Regards, Leonard. -- mount -t life -o ro /dev/dna /genetic/research
