Permissions

[uglycustoomer]

So i was running a previous version of FreeNAS and finally upgraded to 8.2.0 yesterday. The reason I upgraded was because certain folders on my share I am not allowed to write to. The release notes in the newest version mentioned that permissions got fixed but I am still faced with the same issue.

Look at the screenshot for the permissions that I have set. All of the people that need access to the folder are in the ITLIC group. If i select "Set Permissions recursively" FreeNAS doesn't hold onto the settings. Another bug I assume.

So, any ideas? I tried running chmod -R g+rw in shell but that didn't do anything.

Thanks!

small update. i have SSH into the console as the root user. As you can see by the screen shot the permissions are all out of wack. I am trying to write to the User_Backups folder but am unable to. I have tried various chmod commands but can't seem to crack. any ideas how to grant "drwxrwxrwx" to all folders in directory?

Weird. chown -R root:ITLIC on your User_Backups directory and do an ls -l again to see if it took.

how to grant "drwxrwxrwx" to all folders in directory?

From the appropriate parent folder, if you just want to change permission on folders in and under that folder, do:

find . -type d -exec chmod 777 {} \;

i ran the chown command in the folder that i want to grant access but it didn't do anything. look at screen shot. am i missing something?

Ideally i want to grant everyone access to the parent folder which falls under "/mnt/itstorage"

Looks like the command wasn't executed properly (or the jpg is truncating the right side of the screen).

try this...

cd /mnt/itstorage
chown -R root:ITLIC 7.\ User_Backups
chmod 777 7.\ User_Backups

i will keep that marked down.

i ran "chmod -R 770 "foldernamehere" and I was able to RWX to the folder including all the other folders.

Monday will be the real test.

I will keep you updated. thanks so much.

Hexland,

i did both commands and they worked. However, any files i create are not open to everyone. i created a test file and the permissions came up as "-rw-r--r--+" instead of "drwxrwxrwx"

how can i make it so that all files created hold the same permissions?

thanks so much for all your help thus far.
