Is it possible to have a single computer always have read/write to the disks/shares, and all others have read only?

 

Thanks!

unRAID security is on the user not on the machine.  It is possible to make a share updatable for some users, and read-only for others.

Thanks bjp999, can you kindly point me in the right direction?

Take a look here for some info on user share security.

 

By default, disk shares (ie \\tower\disk1 etc) cannot be secured on a per user basis, but you can get around that by using an smb-extra.conf.  For example, I have the following in my /boot/config/smb-extra.conf to secure the flash share:

[flash]
        path = /boot
        valid users = spectrum
        read only = No
        create mask = 0777
        directory mask = 0777
        map archive = No
        map hidden = No
        map system = No
        browseable = No
        browsable = No

 

This gives me access to \\tower\flash but keeps others out   The same could be done with the disk1..n shares as well.  Just be sure if you use this method that you disable the respective shares in the web-ui.  Don't want to try sharing things out twice.

For User Shares ....

 

Look HERE

 

Look at the Export settings, and then scroll down and look at the "Exceptions".

 

Wish I could give you some peronal advice, but I use custom Samba shares and not user shares.

 

For Disk Shares ....

 

You can't really do it directly.  But you can set up some custom samba shares and have fine control.  I see that Spectrum responded while I was typing this, so will not repeat.  If you have any questions about setting up these types of shares, post back.
