Hi all,
I just want a simple way to set up UNIX shares and have them accessible by Windows clients.
I tried to set FreeNAS up with a dataset with a share type of UNIX, then created a CIFS share. I created a text file with r + w permissions for the owner (me) and group (staff). However, the file was only editable by me, and not anyone else, even if they are part of the staff group.
This prompted me to learn that the best and easiest way is to use Windows shares for Windows clients and fine tune permissions through Windows. However, the person who I am building this for doesn't want that.
I just want to know how to set up UNIX shares and have them work with r/w permissions for all.
Can anyone help? Thanks.
