There is a big permissions button in the share config, Eugenia, why coulnt u click it & show the pic, now I'm left wondering whether they went all the way and copied NT's crazy ACL stuff. Aka, having lists of users that can access the share..afaik thats a really cool feature, that I want in linux(samba acl, cos i like samba )
Otherwise, it looks much better than lycoris, looks like they didnt just copy the look of windows, but replicated a lot of the functionality. Thats good. I am tired of the look-a-like distros that dont have what it takes.
