I was wondering if anyone has had an experience similar to this:
We are running Samba 2.0.7 on Solaris 2.6.
veto files = /.*/
conflicts with MS Office 2000. One can access files on shares with no problem. However, if you try and place an image into a PowerPoint presentation, for example, via the Insert -> Picture -> From File menu option, you get a permission error. I first thought it might be a Windows 2000 issue, but later figured out it is tied ONLY to Excel/Word/PowerPoint 2000. All other apps on Win2k are fine. Disabling 'veto files = /.*/' fixed the problem.
