[Samba] Users in group cannot rename or delete files/folder owned by the group
Hi all,
I am having a very strange issue with Samba, users who are not the owner
of files but are in the same group cannot delete or rename files via
Windows.
For example the user sean in the storage.access group CANNOT delete or
rename a folder called temp via windows but CAN delete or rename via
terminal session.
The folling three folders have the folling permissions:
/storage/
/storage/storage02/
/storage/storage02/group/
/storage/storage02/group/temp/
drwxrwx--- 7 root storage.access
The "temp" folder is in the [group] share.
If any more information is required please let me know.
