[CentOS] Samba permissions problem
Hi all, I have a permissions problem with a samba share which I really can't fathom out. I'm trying to create a fully group writable share. Easy or so I thought. As you can see from my config I am trying all the options to set files group writable, however when I create a file from the client I'm always getting the mode 0644. Does anyone have a clue why?

I can't fathom it out. Did you use force create mode as opposed to create mode in your original message? I wonder if it's a *nix file permission thing. Maybe you need to manually (re)set all file ownerships to spendtrak:spendtrak and take it from there. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
