Hello all, if i set hide unreadable on the homes share on a samba server (2.2.7 acting as domain controller) Win 2K clients (XP and NT 4 are OK) get the messages: "The directory you are creating may be not writable do you want to continue?" (translated from german) while creating a directory with the explorer, a mkdir does not give that error. The created directory is writable. The explorer creates a tmp file in the newly created directory and somehow decides to give that useless warning. Does anyone else see this kind of error? Or knows what the Windows explorer is testing for? By the way, i want to set the hide unreadable to let the NT 4.0 users only see their own home directory instead of the whole list. Holger [homes] path = /samba/homes read only = No create mask = 0600 directory mask = 0700 browseable = No guest ok = no # hide unreadable= yes
