Well FollowSymLinks was present in my httpd.conf, and it's definitely not the problem. I think the problem is the fact that on in Panther, I was able to specify Apache Web Server to be the User/Group for the share being mounted with -u 70 -g 70 during mount_smbfs. In Leopard I'm not able to do that because they eliminated the -u -g arguments for mount_smbfs - in fact they even eliminated NetInfo Manager so I don't even know Apache's UID & GID. So after mounting the share on the share point, this is what happens: http://www.troyjobs.com/media/smb.gif (It's a screenshot of difference between Panther & Leopard on the same folder showing different User/Group). As you can see files within the mounted share had "www" (Apache) as the user & group and PHP didn't have any problems accessing the files. But in Leopard, "www" (Apache) is not the user/group. I don't know what you have to do in Leopard to mount a share giving it a User/Group of your choice. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Rahul Sitaram Johari CEO, Twenty Four Seventy Nine Inc.
