dnLL Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 Hey, I'm trying to standardize all my permissions across my shares but I'm still a little bit confused about what is the nobody user and its users group and what permissions to files with the nobody:users mean exactly. I noticed that all my /mnt/user/appdata/plex/* stuff have 600 permissions with nobody:users, yet the Plex docker has no issue reading/writing to these files. Does that mean that the docker engine in unRAID runs with the nobody user? What about VMs and NFS/SMB? room@vm can read/write from the NFS too even if it's 600 permissions on nobody:users. It almost seems like "nobody" is everybody... as if it was root:root but with 666 permissions. I'm definitely missing something here, any help would be appreciated as I haven't been able to find anything relevant after a quick search. Thank you! Link to comment
Frank1940 Posted December 25, 2018 Share Posted December 25, 2018 You should probably start by googling owner nobody and group users Then add unraid as a third search term to both of these... Link to comment
