| at the beginning of a line is ignored. Something like
|
| !lp = lp
| !chbeyer = chbeyer
| !guest = guest
| nobody = *
|
| doesn't work anymore :-(
|
| from the man page:
|
| [ snip ]
|           If any line begins with an '!' then the processing will
|           stop after that line if a mapping was done by the line.
|           Otherwise mapping continues with every line being  pro-
|           cessed.  Using '!' is most useful when you have a wild-
|           card mapping line later in the file.
| [ snip ]

I'll look into it.  Please send me your smb,conf.




cheers, jerry
