Hi Nigel You can achieve this using chmod (to change permissions) and chown (to vary ownership - user, group etc.) Try man chown and man chmod for more detail. If you add your users to the group that owns the files and give read and write permission to the group. HTH Clive -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
