There's a lot of rpc calls available. These will get you so far. I have considered making smb.conf remotely available via the registry API but its still in the thought stage. Would that be something that people would want ? Something like [HKLM\Software\Samba.org\Configuration] [HKLM\Software\Samba.org\Configuration\global] [HKLM\Software\Samba.org\Configuration\homes] [HKLM\Software\Samba.org\Configuration\share1] ... And then editable valuename/data pairs for parameters. cheers, jerry ===================================================================== Alleviating the pain of Windows(tm) ------- http://www.samba.org GnuPG Key ----- http://www.plainjoe.org/gpg_public.asc "I never saved anything for the swim back."
