I can read off the share and uplaod.

When I try and download it does a zero length file into the sahre and fails.

Does anybody have any idea whats going wrong?

Nothing in the smb logs, the user works fine on win2k and Linux....

So its a OSX config issue or something extra needed for samba in the
smb.conf to work with OSX.

Anybody have an idea pls?

regards

try the samba groups, much more likely to get an answer there.

Samba have their own set of groups on a private server you can access.
