Phillip,
It sounds like a file permission problem. Here are my permissions:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /root]# ls -al /home/samba total 40 drwxrwxr-x 9 root root 4096 Apr 5 16:45 ./ drwxr-xr-x 14 root root 4096 Jul 15 14:23 ../ drwxrwxr-x 3 root bertin 4096 Jul 2 14:12 bertin/ drwxrwxr-x 3 root guillory 4096 Aug 10 20:14 guillory/ drwxrwxr-x 3 root price 4096 May 13 2003 karren/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Dec 15 2003 logon/ drwxrwxr-x 3 root rankin 4096 Apr 13 13:32 rankin/ drwxrwxr-x 32 root rbpllc 4096 Aug 27 10:17 rbpllc/
In my smb.conf I use:
[Rankin] path = /home/samba/rankin valid users = @rankin force group = rankin writeable = Yes map archive = Yes inherit permissions = Yes
I don't have any problems doubleclicking on word docs and having them open.

Subject: [Samba] can't open files off of samba shared drive on
w2k/xpworkstations
Hi,
I have somewhat successfully got Samba working where as users can map the drives to their win2k/xp workstations and wrote to the folders they are given permissions to. They can write to the folder, delete folders, write files, delete files, view the file listing, however, they can't open files. For instance, if there is a word document, they can't just double click on the share and work on the file right off of the share. They have to go through the trouble of dragging the file to their desktop, make their changes and then copy it back overwriting whatever changes they made before. Is there an entry in the smb.conf file that I'm missing?
I am running samba 3.0 on gentoo 2002.4
thanks in advance,
