I don't know the source of your problem... you could post your smb.conf file here to see if anyone sees an error. but I don't think samba is the right choice for you considering you're using macs... I run both samba and netatalk on my main server for both types of clients - the macs are much happier just speaking their native language... brad -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
