It's because of the map hidden config option. You can add map hidden = no as
below. The downside is that you then cannot make any file in the homedir
share hidden except by making it a dotfile :-(

Yes, it was in the global area. I pulled it out. The person who set up Samba on our network years ago probably put it in there while trying to get it to work. He even commented the setting sith something that didn't make sense at all... something like "make the service hidden". Probably just a case of assuming a flag did somethign else... -grant -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

Good.

There are three options for X-bits:
"map archive" maps the owner x-bit to the DOS "archive" attribute
"map hidden" maps the world x-bit to the DOS "hidden" attribute
"map system" maps the group x-bit to the DOS "system" attribute
All but the first of these defaults to off. Now this makes me wonder why map
hidden seems to have been in effect for you. Was it set to yes/true in the
global section?

Well I started digging into it, and it seems its making executables show up as hidden. Which seems really odd, here's an ls -l from my Solaris machine... -rw-r--r-- 1 iacm staff 0 Oct 12 11:10 notHidden -rwxr-xr-x 1 iacm staff 0 Oct 12 11:09 showsUpHidden The file names describe which one is which. If I did a chmod 755 on notHidden, it would then show up hidden. Any clues to why this is happening? It doesn't seem to be on all our shares... but from one share in particular... its smb settings are [home] comment = Home directories browseable = yes path = /home public = yes writeable = no printable = no -Original Message- From: Schoep, Grant @ STORM [mailto:GSchoep@;storm.l-3com.com] Sent: Thursday, October 10, 2002 3:10 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: [Samba] Files are showing up as hidden when view from windows... I have a string occurance one one machine. We have a Solaris 2.6 machine, running Samba 2.2.4. When going through the files from my Win2000 SP3 machine, I see some files are showing up as hidden. When I copy them over to my machine, they stay marked as hidden files. I can't figure out what is making it think these files are hidden. They don't have a . prefix or anything.
