Hi All, Sorry for the extra e-mail. Given I am helping roll out this identical setup again I am thinking I will test another approach which I am hoping will work but given having two or more PCs trying to access the 'mail' folder crashed at this site on the weekend, I went away from this. But in my thinking perhaps it 'might' work if same login ID is not used to access the exact same area. Example: 1. Setup user "accounts" and open the permissions of its folders. (${HOME} = /u/home/accounts) 2. Create "accounts2" but have its ${HOME} directory set to the same as "accounts". (${HOME} = /u/home/accounts) Make sure accounts2 can fully access everything - perhaps I will need to enforce a central GID (group ID) for each user to belong to (eg., accounts). 3. See if the same crash issue happens if using a different login name. This is using the reverse approach of not having separate Root Folder paths for the same Linux login ID. If this does work I can then reverse engineer the issue at the site over the weekend as well. Will keep you posted. -- As always, I remain at your service. Kindest Regards, David.M.Clark
