<br><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><br>

Hi all,<br>
please anyone correct me when I state there is no other way to integrate<br>
W2K Clients into a Samba Domain, than to use Samba-TNG?<br>
If so can help me anyone with the following problem.<br>
The follwing directory is shared among the clients<br>
<br>
drwxrwxrwx &nbsp; 8 tobias &nbsp; manager &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;4096 Sep 24 00:30 public<br>
<br>
[public]<br>
path = /usr/local/samba/shares/public<br>
public = no<br>
comment = Public Share<br>
create mask = 775<br>
directory mask = 775<br>
writable = yes<br>
force create mode = 774<br>
<br>
My goal is to create directories to which an ordinary user can add files<br>
but cannot overwrite the existing ones.<br>
<br>
So my apporach was the following:<br>
create a file below public:<br>
-rw-r--r-- &nbsp; 1 tobias &nbsp; manager &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 0 Sep 24 00:44 test.txt<br>
<br>
(note that a ordinary user does no belong to the group manager)<br>
But I was kinda suprised that every user can delete this file. Even if it<br>
belonds to root:root with 700 permissions. Is this a wanted behavior?<br>
TIA<br>
Tobias<br>
