We have a public share which is backed up from another machine, and use the archive bits to detect if files have been modified.
If I create a file in the public share, the archive bit is set. If I clear the archive bit, and then modify the file the archive bit is set. On the other hand, if I modify a file that is owned by someone else, the archive bit doesn't get set - any ideas on why this is? Here's a snippet from smb.conf: [shared] comment = Shared stuff path = /data/shared public = yes create mask = 0774 force create mode = 0777 directory mask = 0700 force directory mode = 0775 #allow anyone to change the archive bit dos filemode = yes -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
