Cannot Write to CIFS Share

[bsmack]

So admittedly, I probably screwed this up myself messing with the permissions to get all my plugins to work. I WAS able to write to this data set prior to setting up my plugins, but now it seems I cannot write or delete anything, so I'm kind of at a loss. Here is my current config for the share:

Here is the user I setup, which I then made a part of the "wheel" group:

To connect to the drive in Windows 8.1, I've done the following:

Now, to prove my sanity, I actually setup a password on FreeNAS for ryan. I then purposely typed the wrong password in, and it wouldn't let me connect to the network drive. Typing in the correct password let me map the network drive in Windows, but I can only read. Everything else is met with a permission denied error.

I've tried rebooting FreeNAS and my desktop after any changes but have had no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Try checking the recursive permission box.

Really? It was that simple? Thanks, now all is working again.

For those googling, I was hesitant to try what SteeAndLow was suggesting because I had seriously messed up some stuff the last time I checked the recursive box. Make sure you turn off all your plug-ins before doing anything recursive!

Actually turning them off will not do anything. What you need to do is make sure your plugins aren't below the path that you set permissions recursively on. You should never change the permissions on your jail dataset or share it out. Second is that you could mess up permissions on a way that jail users can't access certain directories this can be fixed my creating the same group in all the jails with the same gid and adding all the users to that group and making the directories owned by that group.
