July 15, 20205 yr The ability to configure shares' schedules such-that, their security settings shift from, say, SECURE <-> PUBLIC during scheduled windows....possibly only for certain users. My use-case; I routinely copy new movie/TV files onto my server from my PC. Each time, I have to manually change my shares' settings from SECURE to PUBLIC to give myself write access.....and revert the setting when I'm finished. The remaining 99% of the time, I want my server to DENY write access to everyone, including myself. I do this to help keep my server safe from any ransomware that might infect any machine on my network. For some operations, I circumvent the need- by copying directly to the cache drive, but for some things, whose directory structure is nested, or when I'm renaming files already ON the array, it's a very manual affair. It would be nice if, for example, my server knew to change my MOVIE share from SECURE to PUBLIC from 10-11pm for user "johnny," and at 11:01pm it reverts back to SECURE. That would allow me to add/delete/rename files each evening but leave it secured otherwise. Thanks! Edited July 15, 20205 yr by johnny121b
