-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello, samba Version 3.5.4-5.3.1-2489-SUSE-SL11.3
I do not understand why the file permissions of mounted shares are different when the share is viewed locally and when viewed remotely. When I initially created a share, for instance with "//sma-nas-01/photos /v cifs credentials=/home/sma-user4/.smb/.smbpw,uid=jmoe,gid=users" in </etc/fstab>, a long directory listing (ls -l) show ALL permissions as "775", regardless of the actual permissions as displayed locally. This was not good, showing everything as executable. I then added "file_mode=0664,dir_mode=0775" to the mount options and got reasonable settings for the permissions. They, however, are not the true settings. Again samba has masked over reality. Using "chmod" to alter the file permissions does not work. The action is simply ignored. Is there a way to have the actual, real, local permissions shown to remote hosts? And to have the ability to change the permissions remotely? - -- James Moe moe dot james at sohnen-moe dot com 520.743.3936 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.15 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk2jYNYACgkQzTcr8Prq0ZMDbACfRIOQTy0Gt3erz+ZeGiHpjbag XeIAnA3yvV4RFVx01ZSIkXLKDOiSUV+t =J5BS -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
