Hi,
I am new to Unraid and still in the evaluation period with a modest 3 x 2TB + 2TB Parity + SSD cache. I am an OMV user too. So far I've had to jump through a few 'gotchas' where the instructions have not covered certain things you needed to have known in a certain order, like preclear and the fact that ad-blockers stop you seeing vital tick-boxes on your admin pages! You know, that sort of thing.
However, my latest problem has me stumped. I've set up a bucnh of shares on Unraid - a mixture of privacy and secure with me having read/write access to all of them.
I then access unraid, via SMB, from two separate windows-7 machines. Both in the same workgroup, both with the same Windows username and password, but both have different computer names.
On Windows PC 1, I can read/write and create directories in Unraid. However, when I used WIndows7 PC 2 and try to enter the same share and try to create a directory, it immediately says "You need permission to perform this action". I was at least expecting it to prompt me for my Unraid (user) username/password to the share. But no, it just tells me I don't have permission without giving me a chance to speak!
I ran an UNraid permissions script from the tools tab which I believe sets all files and directory ownership to nobody, just to ensure nothing is 'owned'. But then again, I am not getting through with PC2 to even own anything anyway. Short of changing all my shares to 'public'. Is there anything else I can do.
Of course you could just tell me: That's Microsoft for you. But I don't have the same problem on something like OMV for example where it prompts for my server user/pass on any new session and remembers it to the end.
