samba shared fat 32 drive is now read only and permissions will not change after updating

[gourmetpa]

This issue arose after I ran the automatic update ap in 7.1 and installed all updates. We can access the samba share on a fat 32 drive but the permissions are locked at read only. The permissions will not change via the File Browser properties.

thank you for your bug report, is that a share which has different credential when being browsed anonymously and using a login?

[gourmetpa (gourmetpa)]

No the share was set up as really simple, and was always accessed via a login. Interestingly, I installed 8.04 and mistakenly fully updated everything before testing the share - and had the same result.

do you still get the issue using the current updates?

[gourmetpa (gourmetpa)]

This issue was still present as of 2008-06-12 with all automatic updates installed. I had to temporarily retire the machine and moved the affected drive to another computer. I will retest asap and post the result.
