Mac OS X 10.5, File sharing between Mac and PC
Hi,
Assume I have a folder on the mac named mactest. That folder is set up as shared and everyone has R/W access. Now I have a PC on the network also set up for file sharing. In the Finder, I drag a folder called pctest from the PC's drive into mactest. So I have a file structure that looks like:
mactest:pctest:file1
When I check permissions using the finder's get info, I see the following:
mactest: Shared Folder, everyone has r/w access
pctest: everyone has no access
file1: everyone has no access
I was expecting that any folders and files dragged into a shared folder would have the same access rights. In Settings:Sharing, I have AFP, FTP and SMB sharing enabled.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
John
