I have two admin users who are in a number of groups who have access to all directories. The groups are for example ABC and ACF I have set force group and inherit permissions on said folder but when one of these two admin users touch a file in any way, the group changes from ACF to ABC. This happens no matter what permissions I set. The permissions I have not set is the sticky bit. This has been happaening since 3.0.10 This is urgent as I cannot always be forcing the group each time the users touch a file. Sorry the system is Suse 10.0 on x86 Regards Leon
Hi, I can confirm but not with normal file operations (eg. in explorer open/close). Here it is a sync app on a XP SP2 Notebook called 'allway sync' which ignores the sticky bit. Creating the file locally and syncing to the server does this: # ls -la insgesamt 2116 drwxrws--- 2 cmueller sales 4096 5. Feb 15:14 . drwxrws--- 25 root sales 4096 5. Feb 15:14 .. -rw-rw---- 1 cmueller awomgmt 2151561 24.

For completeness my share config: [Awo] comment = Awo Daten path = /shares/Awo valid users = @awo read only = No create mask = 0660 directory mask = 0770 I have no force group nor force user, it's just that samba seems to ignore the sticky bit.
