Yes, and that's okay, because DOS/Windows needs it this way. If you convert it to UNIX-style it won't work under DOS/Windows anymore and you would have to convert it back DOS/Windows-style !!!! > Is there any option/configuration in samba to make > it convert DOS text files to UNIX format? Don't know, but i'd bet there's none because Samba shall IN NO WAY way convert/interpret a file ... I think your problem is not a real samba-problem, it's (i think) a problem of editing files in two worlds ... > Brendan Flanagan > Leyland Trucks Ltd, Croston Road, Leyland, PR26 6LZ > Phone: 01772 625715 > Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Greets Harry -- +++ GMX - Mail, Messaging & more http://www.gmx.net +++ NEU: Mit GMX ins Internet.
