Is there a way to force all of the files being placed into a share to have a specific group? I belong to several groups on the NT Domain and also on the UNIX side, and the group I want the files to be owned by is not my primary group, and can't be. We are running Samba 2.2.2 on AIX 4.3.3. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Jim Jim Warter Chicago Board Options Exchange (312) 786-7510 warterj@cboe.com
AFAIK: use force group and set it to something like "+thegroup" the group is now set to "thegroup" at file creation time but only if the user creating the file is a member of "thegroup". Skip the "+" if you do not want this to be a requirement. /Olas James Warter wrote:> Is there a way to force all of the files being placed into a share to have > a specific group?
