I'm running Ubuntu, and am trying to set up as a reasonably basic Samba server. I've got as far as being able to give certain other, Windows users, access to various files and folders, and to be able to read and write to those folders.
The only problem that I'm left with is that when a user makes a file, either on the Samba server computer or on one of the Windows client computers, it is then only that user who can subsequently write to that file. I don't want to have to have each user enter the permissions on each file they make and allow everybody to read them, so is there any way in Ubuntu to "force" all files in a certain directory to be readable and writable for all users, even those which are made on other computers?
This is really bugging me! Thanks.
