New Revision: 5791

WebSVN: http://websvn.samba.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi?view=rev&root=samba&rev=5791

Log:
Added new parameter "inherit owner". If set on a share, the created file/directory
will be owned by the same uid as the containing directory. Doing this for directories
in a race-free mannor has only been tested on Linux (it depends on being able to open
a directory and then do a fchown on that file descriptor). If this functionality is
not available then the code silently downgrades to not changing the ownership of a
new directory. This new parameter (docs to follow) finally makes it possible to create
"drop boxes" on Samba, which requires all files within a directory to be commonly owned.
A HOWTO on how to use this will follow.
Jeremy.
