Morning everyone.

I was playing around today with our PDC setup.
One thing I noticed is that when I setup users to have their 'My Documents' directory be /home/<user> everything works well.
One thing I noticed is that the directory, subdirectories and files have the owner of the user and the group as per assigned, and permissions as 700.


If I wanted to set it up so a specific group would get assigned the group for everyones /home/<user> as well as specific permissions, would I need to add something like the following to my smb.conf, under the homes section:

[homes]
   comment = Home Directories
   browseable = no
   writable = yes
   force group = daffy
   force create mode = 770

This would make a file readable, writable AND executable for user/group owning the files


I would use:
create mask = 660
This wil not make files executable.

force directory mode = 440

This would make the directory readable only - not executable, so you can't see what's in it and its not writable.


I would use:
create mask = 0770

Which should set the group to 'daffy' for all files and directories created as well as set the new files with 770 and new directories as 440.

That look about right?

nope - see above - may I ask how you got to 770 and especially 440 ?
