hey there, This is the first time I'm useing samba in a 3+ machine environment. I basicaly need to allow all machines to acsess the acounting share and want to allow only one user to be able to modify the files. Any sugestions? I tried useing swat to modify the share, I can now see it from all computers, the sharename that is, but still have no acess to the share except by user acounting. thnx. jerry m. howell II
