I found this in the archives: http://samba.cadcamlab.org/lists/samba/Feb2002/00318.html
It pertains pretty directly to the problem I'm seeing. I first started having it with my 2.7 installed version so I upgraded to 2.8. I'm still having the same problem. Basically, I have a group of web developers that use the linux/samba server for editing files for the site. All the files are "owned" by root. The groups vary based on the developers with access, and the files have 664 permissions. (Directories have 2664 [www] path = /path/to/www public = yes writable = yes write list = @developers force create mode = 0664 force directory mode = 2775 printable = no Everything was working great until a few days ago (while I was on vacation - of course) one of them discovered that they couldn't overwrite files in a particular subfolder. I've been racking my brains trying to figure it out. Nothing shows up in the logs, and if I go up a folder everything works fine. All the folder perms are good, and the file perms are good. And the perms of our local copies aren't actually denying it, and the files are not in use. If I copy the files using the same user(s) via ssh everything works just dandy. Has the same bug cropped up again or is this something different? -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
