do a listfile (not listf) on /MYACCT,# (2 is a nice number :-).  you'll either
see it or you won't.  do remember that an mpe account is in all caps....

probably.  with what's delivered from hp, i believe you only receive the /etc
directory.  you'll want to go into the shell and do:
cd /etc
mkdir -p -m 755 local/samba

(i think the syntax is correct on the mkdir.  if it's not, i'm sure i'll be
corrected :-)        hth          - d
