newbie: Permissions for groups

[Pajosh]

Hi,

your problems come from misconfiguration of samba server running on the
linux box.

You have to add the following parameters to the /etc/smb.conf file to the
[_share_name_] section:

force group = drawing
create mode = 0664
directory mask = 0775

P na jo.sh
