Subject: Creating new files on CIFS mount ignores fmask/file_mode
Date: Thu, 05 Jul 2012 20:18:32 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4FF63CE8.3040403@yeagerweb.com> (raw)
After switching from smbfs mount, the dmask/dir_mode and fmask/file_mode
no longer have an effect on the newly created files. It seems to use the
system umask instead. Is there a way to have cifs mount create files
with permissions like smbfs does?
--------- smbfs mount showing new file permissions ---------
root@osiris:~# cat /etc/fstab | grep smbfs
//192.168.1.23/YEAGER /mnt smbfs
gid=users,fmask=0660,dmask=0770,username=xxxx,password=xxxx 0 0
root@osiris:~# mount /mnt ; cd /mnt/test
root@osiris:/mnt/test# touch test_smbfs ; ls -l test_smbfs
-rw-rw---- 1 root users 0 2012-07-05 18:45 test_smbfs
--------- cifs mount showing new file permissions ---------
(note: substituting fmask for file_mode and dmask for dir_mod has had no
effect on outcome)
root@osiris:/# cat /etc/fstab | grep cifs
//192.168.1.23/YEAGER /mnt cifs
gid=users,file_mode=0660,dir_mod=0770,username=xxxx,password=xxxx 0 0
root@osiris:/# mount /mnt ; cd /mnt/test
root@osiris:/mnt/test# touch test_cifs ; ls -l test_cifs
-rw-r--r-- 1 root users 0 2012-07-05 18:47 test_cifs
--------- re-mounting changes to correct permissions ---------
root@osiris:/mnt/test# cd / ; umount /mnt
root@osiris:/# mount /mnt ; cd /mnt/test
root@osiris:/mnt/test# ls -l test_cifs
-rw-rw---- 1 root users 0 2012-07-05 18:47 test_cifs
