If that share is set to use specific permissions then the app cannot make them something else. So the trick is to force a specific set of permissions via samba. This I know can be done. Just cannot remember how I did it. On Jun 12, 2012 1:19 PM, "Shawn Badger" wrote: > I have tried that form the

I have tried that form the smb.conf, but it seems to be overridden by the app. Here is the snipit from my smb.conf for the share: [lab-test] comment = Lab test path = /mnt/lab-test browseable = yes public = yes guest ok = yes share modes = yes

You can deal with this on the server by marking a directory setgid (g+s) will make new files inherit the group ownership of the directory I believe. On Tue, Jun 12, 2012 at 8:51 AM, Dazed_75 wrote: > While I am totally unable to answer your question, there is an obvious > question to ask you. H
