Admin would access the samba share - browse to the file(s) copy over to a public share. The original owner can copy back to where-ever (including there home dir) the file was lost from - simple :-) > > > 3.

I think you will find that there are *many* places in the world where a Small to Medium Enterprise numbers between 2 to 20 users and relationships are close enough that internal file sequrity is very loose. MS has built W2K for U.S. enterprise conditions. Thus W2K server is often only used in New Zealand to overcome the 10 user workgroup limit or to give RAS access, etc. A backup solution that costs less than a SCSI tape drive, and doesn't require the file server to be actually going before one can access historical data, is VERY interesting. -- Kind regards Rob Wellesley ------------- Winux Ltd ------------- -- Please report bugs to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] (only) to discuss security issues Support for registered customers and partners to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Searchable archive at http://www.mail-archive.com/devinfo%40lists.e-smith.org
