SOLVED CIFS share with different permissions for groups

[TomS]

Hi there,

I'm working with CIFS shares on my FreeNAS box without using it in an AD environment.
It's working pretty fine to configure shares which are read-only and others which are read/write.

But now I would like to create a share with the following properties:
- not accessible for guests
- full access rights (r/w) for some users (e.g. ME, MOM, DAD, WIFE)
- read only rights for all other users (e.g. HUEY, DEWEY, LOUIE, (group) KIDS, GRANDMA, GRANDPA)

Is there a way to configure a CIFS share in this way?
It might be possible to do that with the Linux rwxrwxrwx rights, but they are greyed out when configuring the share for CIFS use. So I assume there should be another way to accomplish what I want.

Anyone out there who can help here?

Best,
Tom

Throw out everything you kind-of know about permissions in other *nixes. FreeNAS uses ACLs for CIFS shares. See my example below and modify to suit your needs
