Hi, In Chapter15 of the official Howto, in this section: "Users Cannot Write to a Public Share" http://us3.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/AccessControls.html#id2595814 The point 5 is not working on RHEL4 (CentOS): -------------------------------------- Now type: $ su - jill $ cd /foodbar $ touch Afile $ ls -al You should see that the file Afile created by Jill will have ownership and permissions of Jack, as follows: -rw-r--r-- 1 jack engr 0 2003-02-04 09:57 Afile -------------------------------------- I only see this: -rw-r--r-- 1 jill engr 0 2003-02-04 09:57 Afile Is this a problem with RHEL4?
