Every time I try to change Home Directory Mode settings for a User Freenas says it was successfully updated but when I click on Modify User again it shows the previous settings.
Here's what I've done in my overall permissions configuration:
1. Created the drives
2. Created Users with full read write execute permissions with nothing clicked for "Other"
3. Put all those Users under the same group and gave the group full read write execute permissions with nothing clicked for "Other"
4. Changed permissions in the drives, made the Owner Group the same group I put all relevant Users under, made my main account the User owner
5. Under Mode put the User and Group as having full read write execute permissions with nothing clicked for "Other" (unchecked Set Permissions Recursively)
6. Verified the changed permissions were saved (Windows is the ACL type because that's the only platform hosts are using)
7. Created CIFS shares of these drives with only the name of the share and the directory entered. No other boxes are checked.
What's strange is that this suddenly started happening again. It was set up fine but now suddenly its not allowing me to modify User permissions.
Am I overlooking something here?
Thank you for your help!! As always, its most appreciated!! :)
**ADDITIONAL THOUGHTS**
The users that are causing the issues are the ones who's Home Directory is set to Non-Existent. Something tells me this is why the issue is occurring because now suddenly all users who have a Home Directory set are retaining their saved changes.
Perhaps there's just a delay on updated the Users with designated Home Directories? Would love to understand why I can't do the same for Users with Non-Existent Home Directories (there are two shares on my NAS that are guest accessible)
