[Samba] shared folders ownership

[Juanjo Lull ONO]

This is what I have for a directory I want everybody to access:
[experimental]
        comment = Directorio de experiencias
        browseable = yes
        writable = yes
        path = /home/exper
        public = yes
        force user = exper
I created a share "experimental". Then I created a user "exper". Then in the
share you put that "force share", so the only user you will write will be
exper. In another way, when somebody connects to experimental then the user
turns out to be "exper" for reading and for writing. If you want that folder
not to be writable just put writable to no.
You first must create the folder "/home/exper" from the user exper, in this
example.
Cheers

Subject: [Samba] shared folders ownership


what/who is the owner of a shared directory in Samba, on a network that
requires every one to access the directory, when created as root with 0777
it seems to revert back to root ownership and you can't write or delete from
it.
Relativily new at this, so would appreciate any help.
Thanks
Wes
