I've done a little more testing (between a Win2K and an NT4 server at a site that I don't manage), and I can cofirm that this is a Samba only problem. New Test Case: ============== 1. Create a file on a local drive 2. Copy the file to the server (eg. by dragging). 3. Change the hidden attribute of the local file 4. Copy file to server 5. A message will appear asking if you want to replace the file. Say yes Copying from 2k to NT works fine. Copying from 2k to Samba with map hidden = no works fine Copying from 2k to Samba with map hidden = yes FAILS (ps. make sure the create mask doesn't clear the world execute bit). Hope this helps. Glen
