Have undeletable folders in CIFS & can't change the permissions

[Tango]

All,
First - thanks for the help, I'm a FreeNAS & UNIX noobie.

My problem is this:
Transmission makes folders that I can't delete - it looks like it deletes, I refresh the screen and nothing happens. I will occasionally get the windows error "Need permission from Unix User\777 to make a change to this file or folder".

It's the "Downloads" folder
I've tried - chown -R 777 /mnt/media/downloads
but nothing is working

Thanks for your help.

if you just want to remove the files you can log in as root over ssh and remove them using the cli.

if you want to find out why you can't delete them we need to know more information.
1. what permission type is the dataset?
2. who owns the dataset?
3. what are the permissions on the dir you are trying to delete?

The permission type on the Dataset is Unix/Mac.

The owner is User: nobody, Group: nogroup.

All of the boxes are checked for read/write/execute on the user interface

I'm not sure how to check the permissions on the directory I'm trying to delete. Can you tell me how to do this and I'll post the results?

My datasets are set up in this manner outlined in this thread:

/mnt/Media - main dataset. nobody:nogroup owner
/mnt/media/downloads/ nobody:nogroup owner - This is my problem folder although I haven't tested the other folders in depth.
/mnt/media/movies/ nobody:nogroup owner
/mnt/media/TV/ nobody:nogroup owner

Ever figure this out? It's the downloads from Transmission right?
