Hi all, i just created a new share for all users to map to on my samba server. when i try to delete a file from the shared folder, another new file will be created automactically. the file looks like this ".nfsDCBF" it is exactly the same size as my deleted file. it seems like it is making a copy of it. my config is as below. my other shares don't have such a problem using samba 2.0.0 [common] path = /common read only = no public = yes writable = yes browseable =yes Regards, Daniel Tan 7469188 Ext.652 MIS Department Shop N Save Pte Ltd
