Hello everybody,

in my working samba server, any file created by any user with windows
appears with root as the owner, at the server. This way i can't manage
any quota system... what can i do to set the user as owner of his
recent created files?

thanks

Check your: admin users = <username> in smb.conf

all users on this admin user list, create files and folders as root user !!
