hi, I'd like to add full control to all of our administrator to all shares, so I do: --------------- admin users = @adm read list = @x write list = @x --------------- but in this case even if I'm an in the adm group, but not in the x I can't access to the share. do I have to add @adm to all read list, write list, valid users, for each share? in my sence admin users should have to overwrite all other access restriction. am I wrong? thanks? -- Levente "Si vis pacem para bellum!"
