How to set default perms from Windows writing to Lion share?
How do I set up a default permission mask so that Windows applications writing to the Mac shared directory can then be edited by other users? Ideally 750. Can a default group be defined for these writes also? I have tried to find default umask definitions. Running bash by default when using Terminal. If I find or create the umask definition I'm guessing it may fix my Windows writes but maybe cause some other undesired permission problems. I have also read Windows apps writing files will ignore umask values. Both users 'husband' and 'wife' are in a group by themselves called 'husbandwifegroup'. Not sure that matters at this point unless I can change new file group to be named this group name. Systems: The share/directory I created ('pictures') and can be seen on Air and Win 7 systems. I also made a group called 'husbandwifegroup' trying to limit other users on the Mac Mini having access. drwxrwx--- 4 husband husbandwifegroup 136 Nov 27 09:07 pictures Using this share I can successfully write from Air & Win7 to the shared directory ('pictures') on Mini. But the default permissions are different on the Mini from the two systems when I write files to the share. Air Win 7 From Win 7 logged in as my wife's account So the entire idea for the share was to allow my wife to edit photos from the Win 7 box. That works but when she saves the file it's defaulting to 600. -rw------- 1 wife staff 3291923 Nov 27 11:16 ./1-1-1.JPG Same with me on the Air along with the '@' on the end. What does that mean?
