Hello, samba! I didn't receive answer to my prev letter, so i'll try to describe problem in more details. Server: RH 7.2, samba 2.2.2. Workstations: NT4. Problems bagan when i set up RH server instead of Win2k. Actually i have 2 problems: 1. When loging on to server client machines say: "connection is too slow. should i try to load remote or local profile?" is there any way to get rid of this message (and/or load faster)? 2. Clients cannot alter registry (everything under HKLM branch). Moreover, on Network->Properties tab the button "Change" has disappeared! I think that's because client has not enough rights to write to registry. But number of programs don't start, bacause they need permissions to write to HKLM\Software\<prog>. What should i do to give clients rights to alter registry? is this a problem from server or client side? -- Best regards, mailto:maxim@kcci.kharkov.ua Maxim =<ICQ:12253836>=
