- <listitem><para>This parameter controls what UNIX permission
- bits can be modified when a Windows NT client is manipulating
- the UNIX permission on a file using the native NT security
- dialog box.</para>
-
- <para>This parameter is applied as a mask (AND'ed with) to
- the changed permission bits, thus preventing any bits not in
- this mask from being modified. Essentially, zero bits in this
- mask may be treated as a set of bits the user is not allowed
- to change.</para>
-
- <para>If not set explicitly this parameter is 0777, allowing
- a user to modify all the user/group/world permissions on a file.
- </para>
-
- <para><emphasis>Note</emphasis> that users who can access the
- Samba server through other means can easily bypass this
- restriction, so it is primarily useful for standalone
- &quot;appliance&quot; systems. Administrators of most normal systems will
- probably want to leave it set to <constant>0777</constant>.</para>
