I am trying to set up a Share ACL for a local user so that only that user can see the share. However, I get the error that the user I am entering can not be found. I think I am entering the wrong domain. I am leaving the SID blank. According to the popup help in the UI, the domain is `freenas\\smbuser` and according to the documentation it should be `truenas\smbuser`. Neither of these work. Any advice?

<your netbios name>\\<username> or if you're using Cobia there should just be a dropdown for users / groups.
NOTE: user / group has to be an SMB one.

Thank you!

The way I was reading the documentation, I was thinking it was supposed to be the netbios name followed by a slash and the word smbusers. The netbios name alone worked perfectly, thanks!
