Greetings,
I'm running into a file permission issue.
I have a share called "data" configured simply as:
[data]
read only = no
path = /mnt/data
For test purposes, I have a file called "t.jpg".
-rwx------ 1 bek bek 63793 2008-12-03 11:17 t.jpg
I'm logged in as "matt" on my local computer. If I try to open this file,
I can't (which is what I expected). However, I can delete this file..
why?
Based on everything I've read, the file system permissions take precedence
over Samba permissions. So, my understanding is that even if "write list
= matt", but the file is owned by
'bek', with permissions of 700, I would still be unable to
modify/delete/read/whatever that file. Am I wrong?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!
- Matt
