Need help fixing Samba 4/Windows permissions problem 9.2.1.6

[esamett]

I have corrupted my Windows permissions and plan to move all my files to a new volume with Windows ACL as recommended in this Forum.

Will my file's permissions be fixed if I Cut/Paste the files using Windows Explorer, or rsync -a from FreeNAS, from my old volume to my new volume? I prefer to use rsync since it would avoid my data traversing my network twice.

If I need to fix the permissions as well I have to use setfacl. The setfacl manual page exceeds my level of understanding. I need to know the command to use.

Thank you in advance.

I have posted my unsuccessful experiments:

That winacl command basically gives "root" full permissions. You'll need to authenticate as root to the share and then change the permissions accordingly.

I had entered the commands from the "Shell" on web interface. I was unsuccessful (some items changes, some not) as linked above. Is this different from if I plug into the NAS box directly and use command line?

Forgive my Noobness, which syntax do you recommend? I tried these:

winacl -a reset -rp /mnt/tank

winacl - add -rp /mnt/tank

[root@freenas ~]# winacl -a add -rp /mnt/tank

[root@freenas ~]# winacl -a update -rp /mnt/tank

[root@freenas ~]# winacl -a reset -rxp /mnt/tank
