Hi list, When a Windows (XP SP2 with automatic updates) user create a file on a SMB share I can read it, but if I (Linux Slackware 11.0 with updates applied) create a new file or overwrite an existing one, then the Windows user can not access the file anymore. Is this a known problem ? I asked Google, to no avail. We use the following configuration on our server : samba-client-3.0.10-1.fc2 samba-3.0.10-1.fc2 system-config-samba-1.2.22-0.fc2.1 samba-common-3.0.10-1.fc2 And this is what I use on my workstation (mount options : rw,noauto,users,username=myusername): samba-3.0.24

Look into chown/chmod for the linux user. -- [ chris wright ] cwright@softpixel.com http://softpixel.com/~cwright/

Thanks !
