It sounds as if that's not the case. Thanks for the response. What puzzles me is that I never have any problem accessing all files and folders if I login on the Windows machine (with the same name and password that I use in Samba). I must admit I don't understand the Windows XP Pro permission setup; Can you suggest a document that describes this? > On the Windows box, set the Administrator password (XP Pro), or make > sure your account has administrative rights (XP Home). > > Then make sure that account--Administrator, or your account--has full > rights on all files/folders on the drive.

Doesn't the fact that I can browse through a folder on the Windows machine show that I have full rights on the folder? -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
