...39;t done an exhaustive search yet, but in looking over the documentation I haven't seen any mention of anything that needs to be done to migrate an existing directory to the new schema.

Anyone know what to toss into my smb.conf to not let my outside nick xmit smbd/nmbd ? No one can connect via that interface, but people/viruses/whatever are still trying. Thanks! C.

...ged without any problems and the SID is just carried forward? Apologies if this is covered in the books or the archives.

So, what obvious configuration option did I completely miss? /dwight -- Dwight N. Tovey email: dtovey@emergecore.com --------- Work to Live : Live to Ride : Ride to Work
