Looks like this is to do with the way this directory is mounted on your linux workstation. You could set uid,gid in your workstations fstab file to the uid,gid of user kerry on the linux server, as for the directory permissions, i think you can set a mask for these, but can't remember details of the top of my head.

Quoting Kerry Mayes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

Hi all

I'm having a problem with samba permissions from my linux machine.

We have a file server running linux and sharing a disk under samba.
When I create a directory from a windows machine all works well, when
I look at the directory on the server I see:

drwxrwxrwx 2 kerry         kerry         4096 2007-12-07 09:14 temp2

But: I also have this directory mounted on my linux machine.  When I
create a directory under linux and look at it on the server I see:

drwxr-xr-x 2 nobody        nogroup       4096 2007-12-07 09:14 temp

What this means is that, if I create the directory under linux, I
can't then put anything in it!

I'm not sure where to start on this one.  Is this likely to be:

1. A samba setting on the server
2. Something to do with mounting it on my workstation
3. A general setting on my workstation

Help?

Kerry.
