Hi,

I recently upgraded from Samba 3.0.7 to Samba 3.0.14a. This is a Debian
Woody box using the packages by Sino[1], running Linux kernel 2.6.11.8
and the XFS filesystem with ACL support disabled.

[1] http://us3.samba.org/samba/ftp/Binary_Packages/Debian/samba3/

Suddenly I am having problems with Windows XP workstations. Users can
create files and folders, but cannot modify or remove files, even those
that they own. Nothing in the logs to help me out.

Here's a snippet of my smb.conf, in case it helps. Feedback would be
great. Thanks!
