Samba options


Hi, is it possible to change samba to allow people to only open the files i share and to prevent them from copying them directly to their hard drive, as this will consume huge amounts of bandwidth.

opening the document will copy the file locally to a temp directory.

the only way to keep the file on the server is to use a terminal service.
