Hello toasters,
we have several volumes with unix-sec style where there is a cifs share on that volume/qtree as well. For this reason we use the usermap.cfg and it works quite well so far.
The only question i have is, when i create a new file on a volume/qtree with unix sec-style using the cifs share and a windows user the unix-permission is always 777. Is there something like "umask" which can be set on the filer to get another permission style??
I found a related bug in now but there is no solution :/

The "cifs shares -add" and "cifs shares -change" commands have various options for setting the Unix umask.
By default in a Unix qtree, when you create a new file or directory with CIFS it simply inherits the permissions of the parent directory.
So if you are always getting 777 permissions on new files, then check the perms of the parent directory. By the way, when you use "qtree create" to create a new Unix qtree, its perms are 777.
