OK, I think I got it working yesterday
I set the share permissions to Read/Change for everyone
Then went into security and took away everything but read for everyone
(don't want them creating dir/files in the root of Public, then went into
the REEVE folder and gave the accountting group full control. Seems to be
working. Quite a bit different than Novell rights...

guess I'm going to need to read the white papers or a book on Windows rights
management

thanks
