I'm trying to use an NT editor to edit a bunch of perl scripts on my debian server, shared through samba. The problem is that the 'group execute' permission keeps getting turned off when I save the file. I've set create mask to 0770, but every time I save a file, the permissions change from -rwxrwx--- to -rwxrw----.
Here's the relevant part of my smb.conf: [homes] comment = Home Directories browseable = no ; By default, the home directories are exported read only. Change next ; parameter to "no" if you want to be able to write to them. read only = no ; File creation mask is set to 0700 for security reasons. If you want to ; create files with group=rw permissions, set next parameter to 0775. create mask = 0770 ; Directory creation mask is set to 0700 for security reasons. If you want to ; create dirs. with group=rw permissions, set next parameter to 0775. directory mask = 0770
