Hello everybody I've finally installed and ran Samba 3 on my FreeBSD 5.4. Then, wanting to share a directory I applyed on directory drwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 1638 Dec 30 13:58 shared the following command (as root): chmod -R a=rwx shared It doesn't return error but when I look up the new atribution it is the same. Indeed this directory is inside a mounting point which has the same attributes (ie the mounting operation copies the mounting point attributtes and then I can't change any attributes inside the mounting point). By the way the mount is a msdosfs type. Can I deal with this problem? Is it a bug (so I report) or I am doing some mistake? I've also performed a Windows XP to FreeBSD transfer via Network using Samba. The transfer made useless all the archives involved (some mp3). I shared a full access share on FreeBSD and then copied and paste on the XP station the files. Then on FreeBSD they were useless. Can anybody tell what happened?
