Make sure that your TMPDIR in the environment is set to "/tmp" before you launch smbd. ie:In the /etc/rc.d/init.d/smb script, before executing smbd add an entry that says: export TMPDIR=/tmp That should solve your immediate problems. Did you build the samba binaries yourself? - 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
