Re: [Question #167406]: folder and file permissions

 

Question #167406 on samba in Ubuntu changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+question/167406

Eliah Kagan proposed the following answer:
Is the problem that the new files won't accept the changes, or that the
new permissions are set but seem not to take effect?

If the latter, then you'll have to change your Windows file sharing
settings, as actionparsnip suggested in the last paragraph of his post.
However, if the way you share your files is in Sharing Options in the
Nautilus file browser, then rather than manually editing smb.conf, you
can simply set it to be modifiable by other users in Sharing Options for
the shared folder.
