Hi,

	I have a developer who needs access to
	/u/l/a/htdocs/his_project_documentation.  I don't want to give him a
	shell account because he only needs to dump some online manuals in this
	directory. I also don't want him to be able to navigate the file system.
	
	

	We have a similar situation with some users and I just setup samba share(s) for them.
	Simple to do and works a treat. 
	However, text files occasionally convert newlines to control-M's which is annoying, so I've cronned a job to sort them.
	
	Nick .

	ps i think this email is in .html format, sorry. Im emailing this from my companys web client and I have no control over the formatting
