Samba 2.0.7 on RedHat 6.2 accessing from Windows 2000. I have a shared folder that a few people need access to. Everyone needs to be able to toggle the write bit of the files in this shared folder. The application we use marks the files read-only to "lock" them. Currently we can all connect to the Samba server successfully but only the (Unix) owner of the file has the ability to change the file permissions. My solution to this is to have everyone connect to the server as the same user. This is not ideal because we have to share the password for that dummy user and we can't access our home directories. Are there some settings I can use for that particular share in smb.conf so that we can connect as individuals to the server and still be able to change the file permissions? Thanks! Lance
