(SOLVED) (6.6.7) - Share access permissions - unable to access folders via W10

Featured Replies

Ok, got my server rebuilt, parity run, able to access the GUI and see the shares on my computer; however, I cannot access any of the subfolders in the shares due to a Network error.

"Windows cannot access\\TOWER\Movies\xxxxx

You do not have permission to access \\TOWER\Movies\xxxxx. Contact your network administrator to request access."

All shares are set to public under SMB Security Settings. I also do not see //Tower under my Network in windows explorer. I moved from 4.7 (I think it was) to 6.6.7. So not sure if there's other settings I need to change.

 

Both my PC and the unRaid server are on WORKGROUP. The server is set as the workgroup master; however, I do see that my netgear router is also a workgroup master. I have all the readyshare options disabled, and the USB port disabled on the router, but can't get the readyshare to shut off. Not sure if that is playing a role. It's only the subfolders I can't access. I can access \\TOWER\Movies, but not \\TOWER\Movies\xxxxx

You need to run the new permissions tool on your data shares.

That worked, thanks Jonathanm

I'm running into a similar issue. All of my shares are inaccessible now with permission issues. I tried running the new permissions tool, but the problem still remains.

Is there another fix for this?

If New permissions is not fixing your problem then the fix is by no means obvious.

 

we probably need to see the output of a command of the form

ls -l path-to-check

command run from the console on one of the problem directories do we can see what the permissions actually are while this problem is occurring to have any chance of working out why this is happening.

Are these public SMB shares?

They are public. Looks like the root stopped working. I made a new user and I'm able to access the SMB shares with the new user, but root no longer has access.

This seems to have broken a bunch of my containers. Plex for example.

root is just an anonymous guest user for network file access.

You shouldn't do new permissions on appdata. It may break the permissions the applications have configured for themselves.
