Meller Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 So I'm only testing unraid out. Using it with a single drive and an ssd for cache. I'm setting up all of my dockers and user shares that I'm going to want for when I finally build out my actual server. I've only been using it for a couple of days now, but when I navigate to files in my user shares from a windows machine using Explorer, it won't let me delete files. Says I need permission from TOWER/Nobody. Who or what is Tower/Nobody as it's not a user. Is there a way to fix this? Am I missing something? 1 Quote Link to comment
trurl Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 Do you have any users setup on unRAID? Are any of your shares not public? 1 Quote Link to comment
Meller Posted March 24, 2018 Author Share Posted March 24, 2018 Minus the default root account, I created one user account. This is happening on shares that are both secure and public. 1 Quote Link to comment
trurl Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 Is the unRAID user account the same as your windows login? 1 Quote Link to comment
Meller Posted March 24, 2018 Author Share Posted March 24, 2018 No.. is there a way to do that? I'm on a Windows 10 PC using my microsoft account (IE it's my msn email and password to log onto my PC). 1 Quote Link to comment
Meller Posted March 24, 2018 Author Share Posted March 24, 2018 Even on the secured shares. i have it set up to that user "mike" has read/write access. Then when I map the drive on my Win 10 PC, I use mike as the credentials, and it still says I need permission from TOWER/Nobody. 1 Quote Link to comment
trurl Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 You probably first accessed a public user share. Windows / SMB negotiated a connection using your Windows account, and since it was a public share, it was allowed. Then you tried to access a share that was not public but the established connection was not allowed. SMB only allows one connection, the already established one. And even though Windows prompts you to login, it has no effect. This is just the way Windows / SMB works whether you are trying to access unRAID or some other system. You can go to Windows Control Panel - Credential Manager and delete the established connection so it can be renegotiated. Here is a sticky with other ideas that may help with Windows problems: https://lime-technology.com/forums/topic/53172-windows-issues-with-unraid/ 1 Quote Link to comment
Meller Posted March 24, 2018 Author Share Posted March 24, 2018 So then would you recommend removing the established connection. Then enter a secure share, use my unraid account credentials. Then after that I can entire all secure shares (that that unraid account has access too) and public shares without issue? 1 1 Quote Link to comment
trurl Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 You can also "trick" it by establishing one connection to the machine name and another connection to the IP address. Quote Link to comment
Meller Posted March 24, 2018 Author Share Posted March 24, 2018 (edited) So I got it working in all of my shares, except one now... Maybe I messed up permissions some where. My torrents folder, that rtorrent downloads too, then moves to a completed folder. Once it's in the completed folder, rtorrent automatically unpacks the rar files. What I'm trying to do is deleted that extracted file as Sonarr/Radarr has already grabbed it and made a copy of it in my plex folder. Do you think rtorrent is establishing sort of ownership over a file that is keeping me from modifying it? Everyone and users (UnixGroup\users) have Read checked when you look at the permissions from my windows side. Edited March 24, 2018 by Meller Added image Quote Link to comment
trurl Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 Are you running rtorrent on unRAID, or on Windows? Quote Link to comment
Meller Posted March 24, 2018 Author Share Posted March 24, 2018 Unraid. The way I have it set up is I have two shares. MyMedia which Plex uses for it's media libraries, and a torrents share which rtorrent uses. For my dockers, I have Plex, RTorrent, Sonarr, Radarr, Jackett, Ombi, and tautulli. What happens is, either Sonarr see's a new episode for a monitored series airs or someone requests a movie/tv show via Ombi. These requests are then sent to rtorrent, which downloads said media file. It starts with the Media in Torrents/Downloading and when finished, it moves them to Torrents/Complete and unpacks them. Once they are unpacked, Sonarr/Radarr then copies the files over to the correct media folder in the MyMedia share. All of this works, flawlessly now. It's just that files that rtorrent unpacked automatically, I can't seem to delete. Quote Link to comment
trurl Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 Maybe ask on the rtorrent thread. I don't use it but in transmission, there is a umask setting in settings.json Quote Link to comment
Meller Posted March 24, 2018 Author Share Posted March 24, 2018 I'll see what they say. Thank you for your time today though. I appreciate it. Quote Link to comment
