Hi David,

    If you are using the "force user" option  under you "data"
share, this would be normal.  Check your smb.conf for:

    [data]
          force user = jam

I use this technique all the time.  It is the only way to
get your Windows attributes to map correctly when
the user is not the owner of the file.  (You fix it
by forcing everyone to use the share under the
same user name.)

  Gook luck!
