I've been bonking my head against this for 2 days. Maybe someone linuxier than me can see my error.
Ubuntu Server 22.04.3 LTS
Samba version 4.15.13-Ubuntu
Stand Alone Server
My goals:
- only allow authenticated users.
- all users are members of companygroup and can Read,Write,Execute all other users creations
- There may come a time when a directory or two needs to be locked down to a few users.
This seems like such a simple setup, yet I cannot get new files to have Write permissions for the group. Therefore, other users can't edit. Directories are working as expected.
All files end up with:
-rwxr-xr-x userthatcreatedfile companygroup ... test.txt
So user perms and other perms are good. Write perms not there for group.
[DataMount]
path = /media/DataMount
browsable = yes
guest ok = no
read only = no
write list = @companygroup
force create mode = 0775
force directory mode = 2775
I have played with all kinds of settings for Force Create Mode and the settings will affect Read and Execute bits, but not the Write bit.
I added force user = rachel, which then allowed all the users to edit, but I don't think I can setup directories that only have certain people have access because they all are acting as rachel.
