Files being deleted when loging in two machines #2

[Oliver Schulze L.]

Hi,
the problem seems to be that the files I was copying was demo games,
so the they should have dates from the 2000.
I found here:
/etc/cron.daily/tmpwatch
that the files older that 10 days are deleted.

Now I moved the directory to /home/samba

Thanks
Oliver
