I'm not totally sure why this would happen, and I'm not allowed to give technical advice here, at any rate. So... I guess I would recommend you doublecheck your configuration using the how-to here: http://us4.samba.org/samba/docs/man/ Then, write freebsd-questions with some extra information. (ie. this doesn't seem to be a common problem, so it may have to do with your local (OS) configuration. One question I would ask is, have you raised your security level?) Hope you get it working, Clayton _________________________________________________________________ Find high-speed ‘net deals — comparison-shop your local providers here. https://broadband.msn.com
