Hello
I have trunas 13 installed on my machine.
Im planning to host pdf files in a dataset,i crated a dataset named (files),i copied a bunch of folders to it which contain pdf files inside.
And created users in order to access the folders.
How do i set dataset permissions so that the users can read,open,print(folders) but not copy past them to their local drive?
Thanks

That's something you would need to figure out client-side.

Server-side (TrueNAS), the client makes a request to open a file / get a handle on it, then makes requests to read the file contents. The client decides what to do with what's read. It can write it to a local file at that point, and there is literally nothing a server can do about it.

Does nextcloud work locally without internet connection ?
It can... with the right client configuration.

You would need to work out how to maintain it properly with version updates without Internet.
