Dear samba team,
please help me in understanding these.
1) in samba posix_acls.c why samba always setting the READ access for
the file and READ and WRITE access for directory ?
----------
case S_IRUSR:
/* Ensure owner has read access. */
pace->perms |= S_IRUSR;
if (is_directory)
pace->perms |= (S_IWUSR|S_IXUSR);
and_bits = unix_perms_to_acl_perms(and_bits, S_IRUSR,
S_IWUSR, S_IXUSR);
or_bits = unix_perms_to_acl_perms(or_bits, S_IRUSR,
S_IWUSR, S_IXUSR);
-----------
2) I have connected a samba share from the device onto my windows xp
machine.. when I tried modify subfolder owner write permissions , it is
simply ignoring that and setting the write permission again.
Thanks
Suresh
