Well, unfortunately, my users don't have the inclination to migrate from Win9x (which is what security=share was patterned after, right?) so they don't have an option to supply a separate username when logging into a share. So, with security=user, they are required to login to their PCs as a different user to access shares with users that don't exactly match their login username. Is this feature just not supported anymore in Samba3? Thanks for the suggestion. -Carlos -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
