Hi
It picks up directories too. It will be slow without the find. Just find
all the files without 777. If it doesn't find any, it won't do anything:
find / -type f ! -perm 777
For symlinks everyone here will tell you not to use smb.conf:
follow symlinks = Yes
wide links = Yes
sockets and pipes, don't know.
Cheers

Try exec+ if they move a lot of files.
Thanks for the reply. :-)
I would also need to do directories. Ignoring the group sticky bit, the
desired mode is the same. So, I could lose the find and just "chmod -R
0777". But, what about symbolic links? Or sockets, named pipes, block

How about a big hammer? cron:
find /mnt/z/data -type f -exec chmod 777 {} \;
as often as you think users may mv or cp.
Try exec+ if they move a lot of files.

Thanks for the reply. :-) Here is the Samba configuration for the share: # grep -A 9 data /etc/samba/smb.conf [data] path = /mnt/z/data read only = No create mask = 0777 directory mask = 0777 inherit acls = Yes Going from memory, the Samba behavior was the same as local behavior -- creating files and directories via Samba worked, but copying and moving didn't.
