I just upgraded to a RH 9 box and now offline files and synchronizing isn't working on my XP clients. My XP clients keep getting access denied error messages when their laptops log onto the network. Files are copied from the network to the laptops with no error message and users have no problems viewing their files while disconnected from the network. However, if they change files whilst they are away from the office those files aren't copied back to the network and a access denied message is displayed. Has anyone seen or experienced this problem? My samba version is samba-2.2.7a-8.9.0. Martin Stacey IT Support Manager Safcol Australia Pty Ltd
