Hi,

 

After every reboot the samba permission on the following folders are reset to 0755 instead of 0700. And then samba will not start. 

 

Any one can point me in the right direction to fix this ?

I have put the permissions to 0700 now but after a reboot it will be back to 0755

 

See also the error code of samba below.

The thing I could see causing that is a plugin that installs something into a folder along that path and has been built slightly incorrectly so is over-riding the Unraid default ones   You could check this by booting in Safe Mode (which suppresses loading plugins) to see if it occurs then.  If so it is going to be a case of identifying the culprit.
