It did not appear to work for me. I will try again. No, I'm pretty sure that we do not want to do this. What "root=admin" does is allow "admin" to log in and be "root" under samba. We want "admin" to be "admin", and to manipulate files in i-bays as "admin", who is the owner of, for instance, the root directory of the primary i-bay. We don't want "admin" to be creating "root" owned files via samba. -- Charlie Brady [EMAIL PROTECTED] Lead Product Developer Network Server Solutions Group http://www.e-smith.com/ Mitel Networks Corporation http://www.mitel.com/ Phone: +1 (613) 368 4376 or 564 8000 Fax: +1 (613) 564 7739 -- Please report bugs to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] (only) to discuss security issues Support for registered customers and partners to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives by mail and http://www.mail-archive.com/devinfo%40lists.e-smith.org
