<div dir="ltr">The permissions on the NAS device come out correct when using the SMBFS module, as well as when connecting from a windows client.<br>The "noperm" option is supposed to have the server handle all permissions, the same as what I believe happens when using the SMBFS module. Server permissions are inherited correctly by files (the Object Inheritance flag in NTFS), but not by directories (Container Inheritance flag).<br>

</div></div>So why do you think it's the clients fault and not the server? After<br>
all, why would the client know anything about the server filesystem?<br>
<br>
If it's a commercial NAS device, I'd suggest starting with the vendor,<br>
unless I'm missing something...<br>
