Cool! /me copies this mail into "dont del" mailbox. Maybe you know yet another trick - is in possible to arrange so that when someone connects to \\box\share, samba ignores login username and validates user with: login=share password=<user-supplied password> ? This will allow poor souls from Win9x boxes (which as you know are unable to supply usernames, only passwords) to supply username as a share name. Whatever I try with [default] and/or [homes] section, I can't achieve this... -- vda -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
