This is still an issue in Karmic. The only fix I have found is to set 'create mask = 0777' and 'directory mask = 0777' in the [global] section of /etc/samba/smb.conf
I had originally tried to set these parameters in /var/lib/samba/usershares/<sharename> but they do not seem to work in there. I also tried using the 'inherit owner = yes' parameter, but this resulted in other clients not being able to write to the server. -- owner of shared public folder is nobody https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/284651 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
