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.
