driveB is a directory in /samba/driveA from the perspective of the driveA share. IT is NOT a sub-share, there is no such thing in the SMB/CIFS protocol specification. That means that users of the share called driveA will be able to access the contents of the directory driveB as permitted by the permissions on the driveBdirectory. - John T. -- John H Terpstra Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
