Hmmm... As I said it appears to work in the local case. Or are you 
saying I should try to break that by playing with permissions? Are there 
any examples of "smbntsec" issues?

I mean I suspect that if I do something as small as remove read 
permission for other on .htaccess then the server will not be able to 
read the file thus it would break. But what would that tell me? What 
exactly am I looking for?

I may play with this as you suggest tomorrow at work. At home I don't 
use SMB for my web site - at least not yet.
