I am setting up our linux box as a file server for our companies network. I have created a directory (I always HATED calling them "Folders" in Windows, not sure why, but it bugged me) and when I go thru webmin to configure the folder for sharing I get some strange results in Windows Explorer and I am not sure why. There is a directory /home/data/ that I want to share so others can store their files and have subdirectories from there that have different permissions for file storage. (Some user accounts can read only, some can write) But when I active file sharing for windows and then go to a windows system that is logged on with a valid user account the directories that show up are data, data1, and data2. From windows if I create a folder in any of the directories (except data, can't write to data from the windows box) it creates that directory/file in all the data directories. Can someone please explain this behavior to me? Greg Hicks
