I do not understand currently. you have at least 5 machines. 2 Mandrake 2 W2k 1 win98se the 2 Mandrake are in one domain. win98se can access the shares of the win2k machines. the mandrake machines have only read access ? Right ? The win2k machines belongs to another domain or don't use a domain (only workgroup) As I'm not the guru in this too, I would guess you havent given access to write for all. AFAIK is win98 not aware of the domain stuff, so it has no problems. But the user from the other domain (mdk) belongs to another domain so technoslick != technoslick.mdkdomain => user unknown => gets rights as a guest => no write access Could that be ? -- Regards Steffen ____________________ counter.li.org : #296567. machine: 181800 vdr-box : 87 ____________________ Please dont CC me, since if I have replied I'll watch the tread.
