I reported this before, I think it's a samba problem:
Here's a part of /etc/smb.conf
[Primary]
comment = Primary site
path = /home/e-smith/files/primary
read only = no
writable = yes
printable = no
create mode = 0640
force create mode = 0640
directory mode = 0750
force directory mode = 0750
>> with file permission to 640 and dir permission 750 nobody can see my
files!!
>> (except me and my group). That's good voor private use, but I'm talking
>> about Primary here...
>> I think it must be 644 and 755... correct me if I'm wrong....
>> I make my pages in Windows 2000, and copy it over the 'network
naiberhood'...
>> (or something like that, I use a Dutch vesion ;-)
>> It's e-smith rc1, I'm here on a cablemodem with download limit so I can't
>> download every new version......
Hope this will help,
Nick
