Thank you. I yanked out the shares for USER1 and USER2 and stayed with [homes].

I always logon to the NT system as the administrator. However, I would like to access all the
user's home directories on Linux system. That would allow me to do backups. Under the
current setup, I can only see the directory of the person as I logon.

Any suggestions, if this can be done?
