[SOLVED] HELP!! Weird folder permissions


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

I have a share that I dropped my old windows user "documents" into.


I am unable to create a new folder in the "documents" folder, but if i go into it I can do whatever i want (delete/add/modify).

But in the base folder "documents" I cannot create a new folder at all.

 

It gives me the "you do not have permission from TOWER/nobody.

I have tried many things. Reseting credentials. Remapping. Its been plaguing me for years and every month or so I spend a weekend trying to fix it.

Im not sure what the path forward is to fixing it.

Maaaaaaaan, this is why I waited to post looking for help. Every time I do, I find the answer before anyone replies. Never fails.


I ran the Tools   >>>   New Permissions and it fixed it.

Thanks to @Frank1940 for the answer in this thread:

Given the above, I think I'll let you find the answer yourself. 🤣
