Hope this helps: http://samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-Guide/appendix.html#ch12-SUIDSGID -----Original Message----- From: redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Davis, Jared Scott Sent: 25 January 2007 16:53 To: General Red Hat Linux discussion list Subject: RHEL4 - permissions/groups and Samba I have multiple users editing documents in the www/html folder. I set up a group called web_admin that contains said users. All of the files under the web root are owned by my local account and the group is web_admin. We are using Samba to connect to the box. The problem is as follows: I have a file: -rwxrwxr-x 1 nilesn web_admin 977 Jan 25 06:52 menu.css When a user (davisjar) edits that file via Samba, the permissions/owner/group change to this: -rwxr--r-- 1 davisjar davisjar 977 Jan 25 10:47 menu.css Of couse I need the permissions and owner/group to stay the same. Is this a problem with Samba, i.e. some config option, or something else?
