Dear Dave, Doesn't this only work if you're using samba as a domain controller and the client says "net use h: /home" I've not got it to redirect "//server1/username" to "//server2/username" when the NIS map says "user server2:/path/&" Though if it could be done I'd be VERY keen.

A moderately-frequently asked question is "why do automounted directories in shares disappear?" The old answers were: 1) they timed out and auto-un-mounted, and 2) you shouldn't re-export NFS-imported stuff anyway. A new answer (0) was just suggested by a Sun techie: add a "browse" option to the automounter map entry, to make them appear even when they're not

Of course, having said that, the authentication errrors look as if the web server didn't have permission to read the files Samba provided. Do the Unix permissions on the files include read for

It's doable "below" Samba using the Samba VFS, by passing the start-point as part of a filename and having the VFS (which you'd have to write!) return the rest of the file. Say you were transferring

Oh, you already replied... Also you're on Solaris, so it's easier: you can email me truss and sar files. So, if I understand you correctly, the upgrade to Solaris 7 and 2.0.5a cut performance down noticeably. This is unexpected, as a colleague who does big benchmarks always checks out Samba against the old 1.9.18 version to make sure there hasn't been a reduction, and 2.0.7, at
