Samba shares and file and folder permissions
 
i have 3 shares on my samba.
i have users - user, manager and boss
projects is RW to everyone
reference is R to everyone RW to manager and boss
Proposals is RW only to boss, no access to others

However when boss logs in and creates a directory in projects share, the directory can only be renamed bu users and manager, and directory contents are read only for users and managers, even deletion / rename is denied.

How can i make sure that when ever boss creates a directory in projects, it retains base folder permissions and is writable to user

this is my samba file... i am using red hat 6.1 with samba 3.5.6 (i think)

Need some serious help ... and thanks in advance

Take a look at smb.conf parameter "create mask" to add correct permissions when files and directories are created.
