I thought the mac was re-writing the permissions, but the permissions aren’t actually changing, the only problem is when the windows machines try to create a folder/file with the same name as the folder/file that was removed with the above command. If youre trying to find all files with a specific extension, you can use the find command to do this quickly and efficiently. My windows machines will try to create a folder or file with the same name, but will claim they don’t have permission to do so, or they will say the folder/file already exists when it in fact it does not exist. I have mac and windows clients attached to the shared volume “CONVERT”. Using find and sed to copy 20th line of many files into one file.
