I'm trying to create a fully group writable share. Easy or so I thought. As you can see from my config I am trying all the options to set files group writable, however when I create a file from the client I'm always getting the mode 0644. Does anyone have a clue why? Thanks!
client: //database.pricetrak.com/spendtrak /home/spendtrak cifs username=webserver,password=twonkerlet,uid=apache,file_mode=0660,dir_mode=0770 0 0
server: [spendtrak] comment = Spendtrak Files path = /home/spendtrak browseable = no writable = yes printable = no valid users = +spendtrak force group = spendtrak create mode = 0660 create mask = 0660 force create mode = 0660 directory mode = 0770
I have this working with:
[example] path = /home/example writeable = yes browseable = yes create mask = 0775 force create mode = 0775 directory mask = 0775 force directory mode = 0775
---- indeed and 'force group' is pointless.
chmod g+s /home/spendtrak
gets it done, neatly, cleanly and the recommended method
