Got any cool ideas on that? User-defined sharing is hard, but most people need something simple :) Just share ~/Public (everything but http) and ~/Sites (http) and some system-wide share akin (/System/Sites and /System/Public or some such), and you're done. Point the user to the docs in the help for the Sharing capplet if they want more configuration. Apple has done that, I didn't see anyone complaining ;) -- /Bastien Nocera http://hadess.net
