[Samba] Problems with folder permissions

[Thomas Linton]

Hi,

1) Creating a Folder on a my samba share works in general via WinXP,
but setting the permission doesn't.
On the new Folder <right click>+<properties>+<security tab> doesn't
show any selected check boxes. After selecting a check box + <Apply>
doesn't "save" it. I have to do this a 2nd time and then it work.

2) Can't select the permissions "Full Control", "Modify" and "Write" separately
It seems that samba is not able to handle these permissions
separately. I can't select just one of them, if then the other 2 are
always automatically checked. If I just try to unset on of them, it
doesn't work either - have to always unselect all 3.

Almost the same with "Read & Execute", "List Folder Contents", "Read".

--> I'm not familiar with the permissions under windows, if this is a
right behavior then sorry for my question - anyway, think the behavior
#1 doesn't seem right to me (on a real winbox the persmissions are
shown and set right after <Apply>).



Configuration:
