 Posted: Mon Dec 30, 2002 10:19 pm Post subject: Lotus Notes, wine and file permissions |
 |
|
This isn't gentoo specific, but here goes.
I have a dual boot system with Win2000 and gentoo 1.4rc1.
I have LotusNotes on the windows side and I can acccess it quite easily through wine
from the gentoo side.
I mount my windows partition as follows:
dev/hda1 /c vfat umask=000,noauto,user 0 0
I just added the umask field today, but it didn't change anything (see below for problem description)
I mount the windows drive as a user, and all the windows files indicate ownership by "user", including the notes mail data file.
When I run lotus notes as a user, I can get into my mail database, see all my email listed,
but when I try to read an email I get the following error message
(generated by notes, I believe)
access to data denied.
The weird thing is, I can delete mail mesages, I just cannot read them. I cannot create new mail, either.
Naturally, when I run notes as root, everything works fine.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!! |

| Try using these settings in combinations uid, gid, umask, dmask and fmask. |

Try:
Now note down the output of your User and Group IDs then, in /etc/fstab, modify your line to read:
| Code: |
/dev/hda1 /c vfat umask=0770,uid=UUU,gid=GGG,rw
|
Where UUU and GGG are your Usre and Group ID numbers.

i have neither fat nor ugly partitions available here to test this, but an umask of 770 leads to files with mode 00[0-7] (no permissions for user and group)... |

No - the first 0 is StickyBit (not used in vfat) the other three (770) are rwx for User and Group, nothing for any1else.
0770 is correct.

hi,

you mix file permissions and umask: | umask(2) wrote: | | "The umask is used by open(2) to set initial file permissions on a newly-created file. Specifically, permissions in the umask are turned off from the mode argument to open(2)[...]" |
what you probably want are file permissions 0770, so you have to use an umask of 0007. test it in your shell: | Code: | $ printf '%.4o\n' "$((0777 & ~0007))"
0770 |
btw: your first 0 can also be suid and sgid. for more information see /usr/include/(sys|linux)/stat.h |

Jukka is correct and I'm talkin shite, was running instead of walking..
The permissions you need to set are 0770 and the user mask IS INDEED 007, so...

Shold be

My apologies Jukka, I was in a twist there wasn't I - thanks 4 pulling me out.
