Hi, The following is done on a samba share:- When I want to hide files in on the Windows interface, I right-click the file and check on the hidden attribute, but the file still appears there. Must I rename the file with a dot in front in order to hide it? Any alternative to allow the use of Windows interface to hide it? Thanks. adrian

Apologies if this has been covered already, I can't find any helpful hints after 2 hours searching.... Testparm refuses to work on my e250 box - says it can't find the file? Any pointers to useful docs will be greatly appreciated (other than SAMS books and O'Rielly - been there, done that!), especially any relating to Solaris 8 and SAMBA! TIA Jo

Hello, I am wondering if anyone could help me out with the following questions: 1. How to uninstall Samba? 2. How to install/upgrade/uninstall Samba from Mandrake 9.0 to the latest Samba version via source code (I noticed that MDK9 installed Samba to different places. And the document:"Using Samba" mentioned the file "inetd.conf" but I couldn't find it in MDK9.)

G'day, I'd like to know how to restrict access to the [homes] share. Currently, each user is able to read/write to his/her own share, and by typing \\machine\anotheruser can open another user's share and read/write there too. I would like to restrict access so that a user can only read/write to their own share only. Here is some of the relevant config: [global] workgroup = ASDF

If I try to rsync OpenOffice-directory (OO as an example, 155 MBytes) to Solaris8-machine/rsync-server it takes 4-5 minutes, about 70 MBytes gets transfered and eventually rsync.exe/winXP "dies"; actually winXP's net doesn't responde anymore and I have to boot whole machine!
