I have quite a problem with the new SAMBA version(s) ( both 1.9.17 and 1.9.17 p2). When creating a directory in a samba-mounted unix file system the create mask entry will be ignored. I tried a lot (changing umasks on the unix boxes (SunOS/Solaris), changing the create mask entry to a many different values) but nothing happens at all. Every directory will be created with the permissions of 755. After using the older SAMBA Versions everything worked fine ( 1.9.16.x ) again. Is there an entry I overlooked or what happened here? I'll gratious for all help.
