Dear all,
Before I moved to FreeNAS I was running and maintaining custom SMB env. for my windows clients I was always struggling with ACLs till I realized I don't need to because my clients prefer a per share access permission policy anyway so I added the acl support = no param. to the shares and after one chmod or chown command all was set and good.
Since a year I moved for pretty good reasons to FreeNAS which is great But there is still samba and oh yes the windows clients ;-) and don't ask me why I ended up where I was years ago- several ACL issues, read/write or access issues inherit bullshit and so on. The thing is I did it how the documentation guided me and well yeah hello ACLs again.
NOW MY QUESTION:
Because I do only need a per share base access permission(user / group) so no windows ACLs for subfolders and inherits usw.
Is there a good reason why not switching to a Unix permission type?
Set the rights once with chown and chmod and done!?
Or do I miss something or does this affect something else eg. the Periodic Snapshot Task?
THX & Best
