Hi There, Debian squeeze, samba 3.3.3-1 I am currently trying to use a samba partition to backup windows machines to, and am always warned that the destination does not support NTFS attributes, hidden attributes and system attributes. Are there any config options to enable these in samba? or does samba not support mapping these to something on the linux side? Any help or links to documentation would be appreciated. Best Regards, Mark

Hi, Thanks for your response. This has correced the errors regarding hidden and system attributes, however the error regarding "NTFS Attributes" still persists. Are their any other options that I may be missing?
