I am running Samba 3.014a on a server running Fedora Core 3. The source was compiled with ACL support. When I modify files with various permissions using notepad on a Windows XP machine, the permissions on the files change in weird ways. The following happens: Files with 0666 permissions change to 0766 after a modification is made to the file, 0664 is changed to 0766, 0660 is changed to 0762, 0644 is changed to 0766, 0640 is changed to 0762, and 0600 is changed to 0722. The configuration file looks like: # Global parameters [global] workgroup = IAT server string = Exeter security = SERVER password server = 10.0.0.22 log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log max log size = 50 socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 load printers = No printcap name = /etc/printcap dns proxy = No cups options = raw [ppower-pub] comment = PPower Public Share path = /tas/ppower-pub read only = No create mask = 0777 directory mask = 0777 Is this supposed to happen? Thanks for any help.
Please provide debug level 10 logs of smbd when doing this. Thanks, Volker
