[Samba] Group file ownership...

I've been trying to figure out the same problem

I've been investigating umask settings in /etc/bashrc, setting the setgid
bit on the directories with chmod and also using inherit permissions = yes
in the samba configuation file

I've also tried the following smb.conf options:
   create mask = 0770
   force create mode = 000
   directory mask = 2775

Let me know if you find a workable solution - I'm still searching

Subject: [Samba] Group file ownership...


We have a Red Hat 7.3 file server that serves about 30 Windows PCs via Samba
2.2.3a.

I have one group called "users" that everyone is in but when a file is
created
by a PC, the group ownership on the created file is not "users", but the
same
as the file owner name. Is there any way to force the group ownership of
created files?

Also, is there any way to force file ownersip to a given user on newly
created
files?

Regards,
Brad
