I post a file automatically on a unix computer with Excel VBA. In the unix it gets the permissions rw r r. Next time someone else try to run the VBA program they get an error message because they are not permitted to save over the unix file. Is there a way to set the unix permissions with Excel VBA?
 
It is matter of samba configuration (I suppose you're using samba)
In configuration file, in section for that share put different create and directory mode)
eg
create mode = 775 ; files have rwxrwxr-x mode
directory mode = 775 ; directories have rwxrwxr-x mode
