    folder permission issue on mount

    I'm a newbie in linux and I currently having some problem on linux mount folder mounted on 3 different linux pc.

    command"-
    mount //192.168.1.100/folder /mnt -o username=administrator,password=password,rw

    1st (linux 5)- I went into the /mnt folder and right click create folder, The permission for the folder is set to 755. Then I MUST click/touch on the folder then reload in order to change it to 777.

    2nd(linux 5) - The permission is set to 777 immediately after create folder.

    3rd (linux 4) - The permission is set to 755 and whatever I do, the permission won't change.

    So my question is, how to set it to 777 whenever the folder is created? I really need to fix this thing in order for my java program to be able to create folder and file inside the folder.

    You can try to use the mount option umask=xxx or uid=xxx gid=xxx

    Try this:
    mount //192.168.1.100/folder /mnt -o username=administrator,password=password,rw,umask=777,uid=<your_user_id>,gid=<your_group_id>
