It doesn't matter who owns them, that's the advantage of using group permissions. If they're group-writable any member of the group can write to them, and the ownership will just be whoever created the file (I think). When I migrated a server from NT4 to Linux+Samba I arbitrarily set the ownerships to root:<group> for convenience, since I had just copied them from one drive to another in explorer. -- Michael Heironimus -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
