I had to forward this to myself at work where we have a program that absolutely insists its files be installed on a FAT partition, and we want to serve that program with Samba. Here's what I do: in /etc/smb.conf ---------------- [DBA] comment = DBA Manufacturing System path = /fat/dba guest account = nobody public = yes writable = yes in /etc/fstab ------------- /dev/hda3 /fat msdos rw,unhide,uid=65534,gid=65534 You should change the type from "msdos" to "vfat" and things should be peachy. Hope this helps. Cheers, Pann -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
