Create the correct permissions
« on: November 24, 2003, 01:28:06 PM »
Hello

I want to accomplish the following:

1. Setup a common Network drive for all user
2. Everybody should have read/write permissions in all folders and files

What i have done so far:

1. Created an iBay
2. set Everyone as group
3. set user access to Write: Group - Read: group
4. Mapped the drive in netlogon.bat

this gives me the following:

1. All users can read/write in the root folder
2. When a user creates a folder on root level, only this user can access this folder which is what I DON'T want! I want all users to be able to read/write ALL folders on this drive.

This is very easy on a windows server, but it should be possible on linux with Samba too?

What can I do, or what did I do wrong? Plz help...

/Henrik

Create a group called "allusers" and then select that group as the owner of the ibay in step 2.
Make sure that all your users are members of the "allusers" group.
The users must log in with their username and password to be able to access the shares.
