This answer may not be direct and to the point. Windows has notions of two security levels(User and Share). And samba follows the same model. And of course you have the normal UNIX restrictions of chmod(1). You have chattr(1) also which may help. Basically you should deny write permission to groups in the subfolders under Project and grant write permissions only for Draughtsmen and Designers. You should follow a set theory model in mathematics and find out unions and intersections in such matters. To start with you should state the problem statement clearly. -Girish -- Gayatri Hitech web: http://gayatri-hitech.com SpamCheetah Spam filter: http://spam-cheetah.com _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, email [email protected] with "unsubscribe <password> <address>" in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
