Hi all, I have a samba server up and running connecting to windows XP. When I look in the directory I can see the .txt file i made but not an MP3 that i put in there. The dir in particular will be used for storing only mp3s so its important that i can see them from windows and play them using a mapped network drive. Any help greatly appreciated Thanks Mark -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Some-files-not-showing...-t1459162.html#a3943580 Sent from the Samba - General forum at Nabble.com.
what does a ls -lha ./dir/ say ? does the txt file have the same permissions and owner to the mp3 file ? e.g. txt file is owned by user1 and mp3 file owned by root Matt.

Hi there Matt, I cahnged ownership of the whole directory from root to the user logging from windows. Still the mp3 is not showing up but the txt file is. Both the files are owned by the same user now. Any thoughts? thanks Mark -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Some-files-not-showing...-t1459162.html#a3949742 Sent from the Samba - General forum at Nabble.com.
