Hi List, i?ve a interesting problem on a samba share: [data] comment = Datas for al users path = /space/data read only = no browse able = yes create mask = 0777 force crate mask = 0777 whe i logon my samba-domain with any windows-client and create in that share a file then the user-permisions are set to : rwx rw- rw- and only the owner of the file can edit it. everyotherone just can read it. the same is when on that share a folder will be createtd with a file in it. but when i add following to lines to the share definition: directory mask = 0777 force group = users then all users can edit the file i thought that the directory mask option is only for new folders (created by loggedin users) do i something wrong with my permissions? i?ve tested it on my own selfcompiled samba 3.0.0 and the shipped version from SuSE 9.0 (2.??) and its the same behavior. regards Arno Seidel -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
