A little while ago I had to drives fail while I was doing a rebuild after upsizing a drive, I removed all three drives from my system, replaced them and resynced data to the array from my primary data sources. The program I use, FreeFileSync threw a bunch of errors that I didn't look to closely at but they seemed benign. Today I looked a little more closely at the errors and it turns out there are folders on my UnRaid server that I cannot delete. On my Mac connected to the share as an admin user (not root) I am unable to delete these folders, and I have no clue why. No I am running beta 21, but this problem existed before upgrading to the beta.

 

I'd appreciate some advice if anyone can help out.

 

Thanks

Its possible this is a SMB issue because when I connected using AFP as the same user with the same permissions I was able to delete the folders.

It could be an SMB issue but it seems more likely that it's an issue with permissions. I'll assume they weren't shares that you set up to be read only. They could have been created as read only or as belonging to another user by an app that you are running.

 

you can always check the permissions with

ls -l

in the directory you want to look at. 

It was only a handful of folders all under one share that had been setup as secure, don't think it was an SMB issue per se, but I've resolved it for now.

 

Thanks.
