I am tired of messing with permissions on this system. I migrated an old Plex jail over to iocage and all of the permissions came with it. The DVR function was having issues saving the recordings to the directories, so I did a chown -R root:plex media/ directory to get the permissions correct based on some blogs/instructions I was reading. Now I broke my ability to drag and drop files from my HTPC to the Plex directories via the windows SMB. It doesn't tell me what user is not allowed, it just says the permissions are not right. I have the network drive saved and it works fine, but if I try to move a file over to that location, it fails.
When I originally setup FreeNAS, I set up some random users and groups because I thought it would make more sense to create custom users and groups for the functions. Instead, now I have a mess of users and groups and I don't understand what is failing because I don't even see anything in the logs. No access denied or unauthorized user warnings or anything. At this point I just want my security to be removed....I want free-for-all access between my HTPC and my FreeNAS server. A single user name across the board. I was trying to use root for everything to make it simple to manage but the warnings FreeNAS gives me when I try to access things are vague and tell me nothing. I am looking for recommendations or suggestions on how to fix this mess. Even something as simple as where to read this data in the logs to determine what the heck is even happening when I try and drop a file in the folder.
