Can anyone help me on this or point me to the right place.<br>
<br>
I somehow had this working for just my XP box, but folowing two other<br>
tutorials seems to have broken that now so I really need to get things<br>
working.<br>
<br>
Looking forward to hearing your replies.<br>
<br>
Cheers<br>

<br>If you do wind up creating multiple accounts for remote access, you will need to pay attention to file system permissions for each account as well as what mask values are used when files and directories are created. Samba uses the credentials of the user creating or accessing the file to determine permissions. A file created by userA may or may not be accessible by userB depending on the configuration.<br>
<br>Hope it helps.<br>--Darrin<br></div></div><br></div>
