Hello,
I have a problem with Samba's 'dos filemode'.
----------------------->8------------------------
First, my smb.conf is:
# Samba config file created using SWAT
# from localhost (127.0.0.1)
# Date: 2001/09/07 16:05:48
# Global parameters
[global]
workgroup = SYENSNET
netbios aliases = printserver
server string = Syens samba server
encrypt passwords = Yes
map to guest = Bad User
domain logons = Yes
os level = 65
domain master = True
dns proxy = No
wins support = Yes
printing = cups
[test]
comment = Hans' test directory
path = /home/tst
admin users = admin
read only = No
directory mask = 0775
inherit permissions = Yes
dos filemode = Yes
-----------------------8<------------------------
In /home/tst/ is the following directory:
----------------------->8------------------------
drwxrwxr-t 7 syens syens 527 Sep 19 15:47 .
drwxrwxr-x 3 syens syens 59 Aug 8 14:30 ..
-rwxrw-r-- 1 jurgen syens 33280 Sep 19 15:47 3EBA9100
-rwxrw-r-- 1 jurgen syens 35840 Sep 7 15:36 katja.doc
drwxrwxr-x 3 jurgen syens 176 Sep 6 17:23 map_jurgen_00
-rwxrw-r-- 1 katja syens 183808 Sep 19 15:46 tst_jurgen_00.doc
-rwxrw-r-- 1 katja syens 33280 Sep 19 15:46 tst_jurgen_00.xls
-rwxrw-r-- 1 katja syens 70144 Sep 7 14:23 tst_katja.doc
-----------------------8<------------------------
With the option 'dos filemode = Yes' I expect user jurgen to be able to
delete the file tst_jurgen_00.xls.
This is not the case.
Editing the file in Excel (Excel 2002) fails too: on saving Excel first
creates a
temporary file (3EBA9100 in this case) which is renamed to the destination
file. This rename fails because
user jurgen doesn't have delete rights on a file of user katja.
Has someone a clue what is going wrong?
System info:
syens1:/home/tst/Algemeen # uname -a
Linux syens1 2.4.4-64GB-SMP #1 SMP Fri May 18 14:54:08 GMT 2001 i686 unknown
syens1:/home/tst/Algemeen # smbd -V
Version 2.2.0a
The whole system is running on a reiserfs file system.
Cheers,
Hans
