umask / permissions to create group-writeable directories

[Minorlemming]

Hi all,

I'm setting up a test Nas4Free system for home and I'm having problems creating the SMB setup so that directories and files are group read-write for all users.

I've tried adding the following to my share configuration and applying:

Code: Select all

create mask = 2640
directory mask = 2750

I did this based on the fact that after logging into the instance, my umask is 0022.

That still created directories with permissions 755 (no group write).

I changed this to

Code: Select all

create mask = 0660
directory mask = 2770

I've applied changes and rebooted between each config change, but when I connect back, I am still creating directories with permissions of 755.

Any ideas what I need to do in order to make directories and files created on a share be group-writeable ?

Thanks

Add in auxiliary parameters to do not lost on reboot.

Hi there,

Taking away the issues for multiple users, right now I just want a single user to be able to create group writeable directories inside a SMB share.

I've been using the auxiliary parameters since the beginning, and my settings are persisted across reboots:


I've also tried modifying the umask now too:

Code: Select all

[waynep@nas4free /mnt/media]$ umask
0002

Despite these, directories are created as 755. /mnt/media is shared as 'media'

Code: Select all

[waynep@nas4free /mnt/media]$ ls -la 
total 32840
drwxrwx---  4 root    family        1024 Aug 28 12:09 .
drwxr-xr-x  4 root    wheel          512 Aug 27 21:14 ..
-rw-r--r--  1 waynep  family        6148 Aug 27 21:20 .DS_Store
-rw-r--r--  1 waynep  family        4096 Aug 27 21:20 ._.DS_Store
drwxrwxr-x  2 root    operator       512 Aug 27 21:06 .snap
-r--------  1 root    wheel     33554432 Aug 27 21:06 .sujournal
drwxr-xr-x  2 waynep  family         512 Aug 28 12:09 Test

That 'Test' directory entry was created after connecting to the share. With the create mask and directory mask at what they are, I would expect these directories to be created 775 or 770.

Create new desired root folders, and asing user & permission that You need by hand, once done enable inherit permission on share edit, and children folders inherit permission of parent folders.
