...to be mapped to windows user accounts, these users dont have windows accounts on this server. So i really need a way to mount filesystems off a windows box that support proper chmod'in and chown'in that isn't broken. Windows only needs read only access to everything dont care about complucated permissions n any of that. y is it always microsofts stuff that gets in the way and makes everything annoying? I think my best bet would be to uptgrade to win2003 ? or is this a cifs problem ?, does anybody have any other ideas about how i could make this work ? Cheers, Matt
