November 29, 20214 yr I'm starting to get a tit. I have rebuilt my Windows (with the same local user/PW as before). Now as soon as I create, modify or move any file from my Windows workstation to a share on the Unraid server or even generally create a new file on the Unraid server, I am denied access to the parent folder or even the top affected share of the Unraid server. I have to go to Tools -> New Permissions each time and select the affected share there and start the whole thing. I have already done this for all shares, but it happens again and again and it's quite annoying because you can't practically work that way. What is the reason for this?
November 29, 20214 yr Author @trurl Are you sure, this is an SMB issue? When this issue occurs, I am still able to connect to all other shares/folders, read files, etc. There is also no prompt comming up for the locked shares/folders. So, the connection itself works. In my opinion, it is a permission/rights issue on the Unraid server.
November 29, 20214 yr Community Expert It sounds like this is a problem similar to the one in this thread below: https://forums.unraid.net/topic/116389-access-denied-printer-unraid-share/?tab=comments#comment-1057893 Read through the thread and then look at your files/directories with the issue using the GUI terminal. If it is the same problem, I am not sure why only some people are seeing it. (At this point, I am thinking that folks are trying to control access to files on their Unraid server from their Windows PC using the Windows advance security features. Basically, right clicking on the folder in Windows Explorer and using the security features found there. But I am not an Windows networking expert so I don't fully understand what happens when you set permissions using those tools...)

It could be that I tried to set some security settings from my workstation to get access back several weeks ago. I cannot remember exactly. Hopefully I do not have to execute setfacl regularly. It could also be that it only happens when I move/copy files into an Unraid folder which have special permissions (ACL) set and then they are inherited upwards somehow (whyever). By the way, I do not use Windows Explorer but the Total Commander accessing a rootshare (as mounted network drive) I've set on Unraid.
