I currently have a directory with several subdirectories that are shared through samba. Each subdirectory is only writeable by a group assigned to that subdirectory. How do I share the main directory so that the share definitions of each subdirectory is not broken, specifically the create mode? What I have so far, is the main directory is being mapped to a drive letter in Windows, so that each subdirectory can be accessed as J:\subdirectory. However, the problem is when a valid user writes to J:\subdirectory, the new file/directory is not being created with the proper group. However, if it's that new file/folder is written to \\server\subdirectory, then it is correct. What is the proper way to share the main directory to fix this problem? Or, can it not be done? Thanks for any help. Jiann-Ming Su "People seldom do what they believe in. They do js290@prism.gatech.edu what is convenient, then repent." --Bob Dylan
