Once you have su'd to root enter konqueror & to get a root copy of konqueror. You can edit smb.conf from there. Alternatively, if you use KDE hit Alt+F2 and in the box enter kdesu konqueror Alternatively if you have a 'contrib' urpmi source defined install the package ksambaplugin and then your KDE Control Centre will have a nice GUI from which you can enter admin mode and configure samba. derek -- www.jennings.homelinux.net http://twiki.mdklinuxfaq.org
