Just a sanity check before I brick something.
I'm running a few jails with transmission, sonarr, lidarr, jackett, etc.
When setting up everything (minus transmission) I had the foresight to add the respective daemon users as 351:351 in each jail to avoid issues with shared files.
Transmission was installed via plugin with the uid:gid being 921:921, different from my new jails. I was not smart enough to create them with 921.
A bandaid fix would be to change the uid:gid of the transmission user,
change ownership of relevant files,
then restart the jail.
From my current knowledge, this should work. Unless there's a reference to the uid:gid in a config somewhere. I've checked rc.d and rc.conf and both reference the user by name. Would there be any references to uid:gid somewhere, or am I just going about this all wrong?
EDIT:
It worked fine but I forgot to change the group of the user transmission to the new transmission group
