[Samba] Windows File Attributes are Read-Only

2003-09-23 Thread Evan Panagiotopoulos
I created a Samba share, I'm able to map a network drive to it from
my Windows XP computer. I am able to read, write, delete files
without any problem. 

I use the mapped drive and I install a program that will have it's
files accessed by Windows computers. No problem so far. If I check
the properties of any file or folder its Read-Only attribute is
checked and I can't uncheck it. On the Linux side I change all
folders to 777.

HELP

The best help I can recommend is the chapter on File, Directory and Share
Access Controls in the Samba-HOWTO-Collection.pdf that ships with
Samba-3.0.0RC4. You can obtain the latest build of this that will ship
with the Samba-3.0.0 Release product from:
