Could this be Windows hiding the files? I recall that there is an option to hide certain files in Windows. I would have thought this could hide them from a Samba box. -- ============================================== I am only human, please forgive me if I make a mistake it is not deliberate. ============================================== Xmas may be over but, PLEASE DON'T drink and drive you'll make it to the next one that way.

Ah well, it was a quick thought that popped into my head. Sorry it was of no use, back to the drawing board :-) -- ============================================== I am only human, please forgive me if I make a mistake it is not deliberate. ============================================== Xmas may be over but, PLEASE DON'T drink and drive you'll make it to the next one that way.
