UMASK for execute for Windows to SMB...

1. offizieller Beitrag

    Lo,


    I've just "pointed" all my Windows machines to use my OMV share folders for home drives/download folders - and it's all working nicely, except for Downloaded executables...they download nicely, but I can't execute them from the OMV share location....a check (via Windows) of permissions and my user (as used to mount the share in Windows) is showing read & write, but not execute.


    On "Shared Folders" in OMV there is no execute option.

    On "ACL" in OMV it's the same, but in "Extra Options" my user has "Read/Write/Execute" ticked.
    In SMB/CIFS - "Inherit ACLs" is on, but "Inherit permissions" is off.


    Via shell, the files show as owned by the right user, but the permissions appear as:


    -rwxrwx---+


    (no user execute shows...)


    What am I overlooking?

    tia :)

    Forget about the SMB/CIFS extra options.

    The execute bit on a file is only relevant for the linux system that has the filesystem mounted.

    Windows ACLs don't have a "execute" bit.

    If windows can read it, windows can execute it.

    Theory yours, practice mine.

    I had same problem, without this extra option i can copy but I cannot run exe file from SMB drive.

    Do you have a reference for this? Users have repeatedly a different experience. Maybe there is a bit of information missing.


    This is from samba.org:

    Sorry guys, my mistake ...

    I had forgotten that I'm working with ACLs which (in my case) set the x-bit.

    Just created a shared folder w/o ACL, shared it via SMB and was unable to execute it from windows w/o the extra options.

    Manually setting the x-bit on the file from the linux side allowed the file to be executed from the windows side.

    Lesson learned ...


    Cheers,

    Thanks all - I will check/try later.

    I can confirm that if I set the Linux x bit for the user it works - so whilst you might think Windows doesn't have execute, it does need it :) (and screenshots of permissions, from the Windows side, confirm "Read" is not the same as "Read and Execute" :)
