I'm a new user to FreeNAS... I've been tinkering around about a week now. I've been reading through the manual as well as following the links in the manual for Samba permissions fine tuning and general Samba setup. My environment at home is a Windows domain with domain users that I would like to use ACL's to control access to the SMB shares. I've been able to do this and it seems to work great using File Explorer in Windows. I'd like to get some input on the creation of the datasets before I get to far into moving my data around. The way that I initially setup the datasets was to set the owner as my domain users and the group to domain admins (which my users is a member of) and then using file explorer to setup the rest of the permissions as needed. A lot of the examples and videos I've seen so far have setup the datasets with the owner and group with a local FreeNAS user and group and then adding the domain users and group later using file explorer. I guess my question is what is best... domain user as owner and domain group as owner group or local user? I don't want to get to far into moving data around and find out I should have done it another way.
