AFP Mount Point Permissions (Solved)
I have the following situation on Leopard 10.5.5: % mkdir a % ls -ld a drwxr-xr-x 2 User staff 68 Dec 4 21:53 a % mount_afp afp://User:password@readynas/Share % ls-ld a drwx------@ 9 User ...
Here's some additional troubleshooting information:
The share in question is a standard share (not a user's private share.) It has "User" (as shown above) listed as a write-enabled user. What I noticed is that if I change the "Share folder everyone rights" under "Advanced Options" to "read-only", the mount point - when mounted as "User" - will have a r-x------ permission instead of rwx------. This seems to indicate that the user-side permissions on the Mac are mapped from the "everyone/other/world" permissions on the ReadyNAS. This would also indicate that the permissioning for the mount point is coming from ReadyNAS.
So the question remains, how do I create a share and mount that share over AFP, so that the mount point (root) has rwxr-xr-x permissions?
