I have got my Samba file shareing to work, now I can not seem to get the permissions worked out like I would like. I would like admin and joe to have read and write access to all 4 folders. When I try to write to any folder except admin logged in as admin I can not write. Can some one direct me to a detailed document on how Linux handles file permissions or the best way to do samba fiel permissions. BTW why does directory . and .. have different permissions?
