force group parameter problem
Hello. I'm having some trouble with the force group parameter in the
smb.conf file. I'm running samba 2.2.8a on RedHat 9.
The smb.conf file has the following entries:
[sales]
comment = Sales Share
path = /sales
public = no
writable = yes
create mask = 0770
directory mask = 0770
force group

FW: force group parameter problem
...: [Samba] force group parameter problem
Chris,
You need to become more familiar with Unix file and directory
permissions
handling.
The simple solution is:
On /sales set owner and group as you want. Lets sat chrisw is the owner
and sales is the group.
chown -R shrisw.sales /sales
Next set the SGIU bit on the directory:
chmod g+s /sales
This means that all files in the directory will be created with group
sales.
Now make sure that your create mask is set correctly, or the force
create
mode is set correctly in your smb.conf.
ie: force create mode = 0550
Note: You probably do NOT want to...
