Hello everyone, Last night for an experiment I changed my passwd on my FreeBSD/Samba server and left my passwd as it was originally on my NT box. Immediatley after changing my passwd, I was still able to access all the shares. However, this morning I cannot. It makes complete sense to me that I am unable to access any shares with a different passwd on the FreeBSD/Samba server than on the NT box (same username). But it does not make sense that I was able to access the shares right after changing the passwd. So here is the question. Is there a certain amount of time needed so that any change in passwd's will prevent a user from accessing the shares? It seems like the passwd mechanisms on both machines talk to each other...just that they take their sweet time about it. Thanks and have a great day :-) Lanny
