Windows does not use unix style permissions, it has no equivilant to the

I understood that defined on the share, that is the way to specify what the
permissions on new files/dirs will be, and it certainly seems to work that way
when dealing with Windows clients.
Thus I assumed that a Linux client would work equally well. However I found out
otherwise...
If you want to change
this, you can still use force * mode settings on the server, or you can
disable unix extensions and use the *_mode options to mount.cifs to
mimick the old behavior.
I think I would prefer the "force * mode" method rather than disabling anything
at this point.
Could you elaborate on what exactly you are suggesting to do?
Thanks!
