Freenas windows share permissions

First I created a dataset "wata" for windows data. I have a user "bryan" that has the auxiliary group "winshare". I edited the "wata" dataset options to windows and the permissions to Windows and user "nobody" group "winshare" and applied recursively. I created the SMB share pointing to the location of "wata" in my pool. When I click the drive I get the error: "You do not have permission to access".

This happens on 3 seperate Windows 10 computers. I have tried many various variations and client side things online. Nothing works. Logs and command output below. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Switch primary group to the one the user should be a member of. You can just change the group name and everything will change acordingly. No need to apply permissions. Ericloewe said:. Typo there ;. So the "have a group just for yourself with the same name" thing causes problems with Samba? Great, just what I needed after going through the pain of making neat groups for the existing users DifferentStrokes Senior Member.

Joined Jan 9, Messages I don't think I clicked on anything. Both methods are described in this section. Enlarging a LUN with one of the methods below gives it more unallocated space, but does not automatically resize filesystems or other data on the LUN. This is the same as binary-copying a smaller disk onto a larger one.

More space is available on the new disk, but the partitions and filesystems on it must be expanded to use this new space. Resizing virtual disk images is usually done from virtual machine management software. Application software to resize filesystems is dependent on the type of filesystem and client, but is often run from within the virtual machine. The LUN is expanded and the partition table edited to add the new space to the last partition. The Windows disk manager must still be used to resize the NTFS filesystem on that last partition to use the new space.

The web interface does not allow reducing the size of the zvol, as doing so could result in loss of data. Ensure the Extent Type is set to file and enter the Path to the extent.

Open the Shell to grow the file extent. Set the size to 0 as this causes the iSCSI target to use the new size of the file. The process for creating an authenticated share for a user is the same as creating a Time Machine share for that user.

Create Time Machine or authenticated shares on a new dataset. When creating multiple authenticated or Time Machine shares, repeat this process for each user.

Time Machine waits two minutes before creating a full backup. It then creates ongoing hourly, daily, weekly, and monthly backups. The oldest backups are deleted when a Time Machine share fills up, so make sure that the quota size is large enough to hold the desired number of backups. Note that a default installation of macOS is over 20 GiB. Time Machine quotas use the fruit:time machine max size parameter.

In this example, the Time Machine share is restricted to GiB. In this example, the password is the password that was set for the user1 account.

If Time Machine could not complete the backup. If Time Machine completed a verification of your backups. To improve reliability, Time Machine must create a new backup for you. Introduction 2. Installing and Upgrading 3.

Docs » Note Shares are created to provide and control access to an area of storage. Note It is generally a mistake to share a pool or dataset with more than one share type or access method. Note Table Note When a guest share is created along with a share that requires authentication, AFP only maps users who log in as guest to the guest share. A better option is to do this: Specify the built-in nobody account to be used for NFS access.

In the Change Permissions screen of the pool or dataset that is being shared, change the owner and group to nobody and set the permissions according to the desired requirements. Note If this command fails on a Linux system, make sure that the nfs-utils package is installed. Warning At this time, only the webdav user is supported. Warning SMB1 is disabled by default for security.

Note Be careful when using multiple SMB shares, some with and some without fruit. Note If a dataset for the share has not been created, refer to Adding Datasets to find out more about dataset creation. Refer to Users for more information about creating a user. After the user has been created, use the drop-down to select the user account.

Group: Use the drop-down to select the desired group name. Refer to Groups for more information about creating a group. Click SAVE. Do you want to continue this operation? Is it OK to continue disconnecting and force them closed? If no previous versions of files to restore are visible, use Windows Update to ensure the system is fully up-to-date.

Shadow copy support only works for ZFS pools or datasets. This means that the SMB share must be configured on a pool or dataset, not on a directory. Datasets are filesystems and shadow copies cannot traverse filesystems.

To see the shadow copies in the child datasets, create separate shares for them. Shadow copies will not work with a manual snapshot. Creating a periodic snapshot task for the pool or dataset being shared by SMB or a recursive task for a parent dataset is recommended.

The periodic snapshot task should be created and at least one snapshot should exist before creating the SMB share. Appropriate permissions must be configured on the pool or dataset being shared by SMB. Why not just allow anonymous access to the share? This partly because signing and encryption are not possible for guest sessions. What about LDAP users? However, local TrueNAS user accounts will no longer have access to the share.

After a dataset and accounts are created, you will need to investigate your access requirements and adjust the dataset ACL to match. See the Permissions article for more details. Because of the way that the Name is used in the SMB protocol, it must be less than or equal to 80 characters in length, and must not contain any invalid characters as specified in Microsoft documentation MS-FSCC section 2.

If a Name is not supplied, then the last component of the Path will be used as the share name. You can set a share Purpose to apply and lock pre-defined advanced options for the share. To retain full control over all the share Advanced Options , choose No presets.

The following table shows the preset options for the different Purposes and if those options are locked. An [x] indicates the option is enabled, [ ] means the option is disabled, and [text] indicates a specific value:. Enabled allows this path to be shared when the SMB service is activated.

Unsetting Enabled disables the share without deleting the configuration. Advanced Options expand. Options are divided into Access and Other Options groups. Access options control various settings for allowing systems or users to access or modify the shared data. The Hosts Allow and Hosts Deny fields work together to produce different situations:.

The Other Options have settings for improving Apple software compatibility, ZFS snapshot features, and other advanced features. The Share Name is shown, but cannot be changed. ACL Entries are listed as a block of settings. Click ADD to register a new entry. This ACL is used to define the user accounts or groups that own or have specific permissions to the dataset that is being shared. Change the default settings to your preferred primary account and group and set the Apply check boxes before saving any changes.

Define how the settings are applied to the account then choose which permissions to apply to that account.

For example, to only allow the tmoore user permission to view dataset contents but not make changes, set the ACL Type to Allow and Permissions to Read. Connecting to an SMB share does not work when the related system service is not activated. The SMB service is configured by clicking edit. Unless a specific setting is needed or configuring for a specific network environment, it is recommended to use the default settings for the SMB service.

To mount the SMB share to a drive letter on windows, open the command line and run the following command with the appropiate drive letter, computer name, and share name. Input the username and password for the user assigned to that pool or Guest if Guest access is enabled on the share. Edit this page. Last Modified EDT.
