Hi, Finally got Samba up and running, I can highly recommend 'Using Samba' (www.kneschke.de/projekte/ksamba/using_samba). What I now want to do is to set up a directory(s) that will allow storage of documents, but different users have access to different ones. e.g. User A - Read/Write all documents in directory User B - Read/Write subset of User A's documents User C - Read/Write subset of User B's documents ...etc.... User Z - No access to documents but can back up whole directory(s) to tape, but cannot access anything on the tape from another machine. I am sure this has been done a million times before, and I have a few ideas, but would appreciate some suggestions. The easiest way I can see is to set up a directory for each user and set it up so each user can only access their own directory and those 'lower', but ideally would want to use one directory for each user. It does not matter if the user can see documents that they are not authorised to read. The users will be using Windoze boxes connecting through Samba.
