Sorry, my previous post was mistakenly encrypted. Here's what I meant to say:
Hi,
I'm having trouble getting my Linux system to honor the permissions specified
for smb shares. I've created an /etc/fstab entry to conviently mount a smb
share:
//win95/c /mnt/win95_share smbfs
user,rw,noauto,uid=500,gid=500,mode=0644,passwd=secret_junk 0 0
When I mount /mnt/win95_share, the files therein appear to have the proper uid
and gid, but the permissions are 775. Furthermore, I've found that a user
with a different gid can actually alter (but not create) files on the mounted
share! Does anyone know what's going on here? Firstly my specified mode of
0644 was not honored. Secondly, users outside a file's group can alter files
even though they only have read+execute permission. Is there a problem with
smbfs in my kernel? I'm running RedHat 6.1 with kernel 2.2.12-20, and Samba
2.0.5a-12.
TIA!
