PS: Please *please* PLEASE do *not* send HTML format email to the Samba-VMS mailing list (or any other technical mailing list for that matter).
Some reasons: 1) HTML-format email occupies 3 or 4 times the space that the equivalent plain-text would do. 2) HTML-format email can be used to deliver malicious attacks to unsuspecting victims, especially those using the Microsoft Outlook mailreader; it therefore alarms many technical people, and it's discourteous to them to do so. 3) Many subscribers to Unix and VMS mailing lists use mailreaders which (deliberately) do not handle HTML - your posting will appear as unintelligible nonsense to such mailreaders. These subscribers (who include the primary authors of Samba-VMS) will often just delete your message without reading it, because they're busy people and just don't have the time to try to decipher your HTML email. You'll probably get a better response to your technical questions if you post them in plain-text.

What "hosts allow" line do you have in your smb.conf ? [There are other kinds of access control you can implement (such as username access lists on individual shares), but I think you'd get a different "Denied" message in the logs.] Nick Boyce EDS Southwest Solution Centre, Bristol, UK
