Re: File permissions messing up?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



My smb.conf looks like this:

[public]
        comment = Public Share
        path = /share/public
        public = yes
        writeable = yes
        directory  mode = 777
        create mode = 666

When directories get created, they are masked 777, and files are masked 
666.

Hope that's what you're looking for.
