Samba Question

Samba Question

This is probably a basic question, but I 'm having some trouble with a
RedHat 9 server running both Samba and Netatalk. One user on a PC can
create a folder and put files in it, but other users on Macs cannot
access the folder or r/w/x any of the files inside. The folder is
simply created via Windows inside a share already setup in both Samba
and Netatalk. Is there something to set somewhere that will keep the
permissions set to 777 for these public folders without me doing a chmod
-R every couple days?

Thanks!
Corey



Hi Corey,

In your smb.conf file find the section that configures this public share
and add this line to that section:

create mode 0777

This will assign 777 permissions to any files or directories created
within that share.
