what a nice way to say that :-). I'm not a Windoze expert at all, but I vaguely remember you (Michael) stating in the past that there is a difference between the default C$ share and an explicitly created share ... assuming my memory is correct, might that be the issue here? I.e. does anything change if you (Tapio) explicitly create a share and use that (or use the C$ share if you were previously using something different)? > At any rate, these reasons are why I personally switched to a > combination of rsync and vshadow (to handle open files) and put together > a package to install the proper files on the client side. If I were in the unlucky situation of having to deal with Windoze hosts, that is what I would use. From what I have read on this list, it seems to be the best choice.
