I'm rather confused by the way I have to configure ACL permissions to allow plex access to my media libraries
Setup:
I have a User "plex", with user id 972. I have configured this user to be Primary Group "media" and Auxiliary Group "guest".
For the storage pool that contains my media, I have the following ACL permissions configured:
I specifically set the Group for this Pool to be "media" so that the user "plex" would have READ access to this pool. However, the group@ portion of this ACL doesn't seem to work! Instead, I have to add the specific User permissions to allow "plex" to read the media. Why is this required? I'm a TrueNAS newb, so please forgive me if there is something super obvious, but I can't figure out WHY I have to configure my ACL permissions in this way.
