still no luck, not even with chmod 777 on both the directory and the files.
I even set the service on the xp machine to run as a local useraccount that is also known on the freesco box.
It does let me feel, the fsd software is somehow not capable of doing what it needs to do, although using a directory on the local machine works.
Brings be back to the origional question. Is it possible to mount withing freesco a network share on another machine as a local directory.
In casu.
/home/.../whazzup would then link to /localip/whazzup share.
I have also posted a question in the forum of the software creator.
