Subject: Android file creation permissions
I have an Android tablet running Cyanogenmod 7 that is using
CifsManager to mount a share. That all works well, but the problem I
am having is when an application (Jotta Text editor in this case)
creates a file on the share it creates it with a 600 file permission,
but when I create it from a terminal it creates the file with a 666
file permission which is what I want. I am trying to figure out how to
change the way the application is saving the files. I have set the
smb.conf so the default file mode is 666 and also put file_mode=666
in the options for CifsManager, but the applications seem to ignore
those settings. Does anyone know how to get the applications (without
changing the modifying it) to stop overriding the default?
