Simon, Thanks for the pointer. Was a good discussion. The described problem sounds similar but I have the same problem even when I disable the firewall entirely. The firewall issue was one of the first things I thought of that could cause the problem I was seeing. But even opening up the samba ports or disabling the firewall does not resolve the problem. I have filed a bug report on this yesterday. I am hoping someone will see it and either provide a fix or work around or at least confirm that I am not going crazy. (at least no more than I already am) I may have to sign up for the developers list to monitor such conversations. Was very interesting. -- Scot L.
