I'm mounting a SAMBA file system for read/write access from my RedHat 9

777, but it doesn't work and the permissions are always 755:
//server1/data_dir /home/andy/data_dir smbfs
username=andy,password=abc123,dmask=000 0 0
Hallo Andy,
Your probably running into the problem of your base file system using
a umask of 022. You will have to reset that, or modify the equivalent
umask setting with Samba as well. You should add create mask = 777 if
you want to go that route. Hope this helps.
