Hi all,
This doesn't happen with UNIX so I am at a loss. I've got a directory where
the directory mode is 770. All the files within it were manually set to 660
permissions and the create mode on the share is 660. However, when a user
opens a file, changes it, and saves it, they become the owner (ok) and the
mode becomes 640! Hence, the next person comes to me and says "That file is
read-only again!" What is going on here? I can understand the permissions
reverting while someone is IN the file, but shouldn't they go back when they
close it?
Samba 3.0.9, Linux 2.6.5.
