Has anyone tried, or knows of a way that I can give authority for a person to create a share from Windows, without adding them into the Administrative Users field in the smb.conf? Or is there a way I can automate this? I have a number of admins across campus who will need access to create shares through computer management. I can do it as long as there is a valid account in the Admnistrative Users field in the smb.conf and the /etc/passwd. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Oh, I probably should mention that I am using Red Hat Enterprise 3. Thanks for your help. --John --------------------------------------------------------- John Petro System Programmer Information and Technology Services Rochester Institute of Technology 585-475-4925 jxpsys@rit.edu ---------------------------------------------------------
