I'm using Samba 3.0.24 on Solaris 10, configuration file or the share below: [TEST] comment = server vartmp path = /var/tmp browseable = yes public = yes guest ok = yes writable = yes force create mode = 0664 force directory mode = 0775 map hidden = no map system = no map archive = no ea support = yes store dos attributes = yes Thanks in advance -- James -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
