This was in an attempt to change (chown) the permissions (777) of contents (-R) of my folderX folder. While I can change the folder itself, all attempts to change the permission of sub-folders/files had no effect.
I tried changing it through SSH and the Shell on FreeNAS GUI (both as root user), but no luck. Only luck I've had is changing the permission individually through the NFS share (i.e. on mac > 'get info' > unlock > change permission). The issue with this is there's hundreds of folders and files - need to be able to bulk change.
The strange thing (to me, being a newb) is that while I can see/change everything through the NSF share, I can't see anything within 'television' through SSH/Shell.
Any ideas?
^also not sure why it says '36' on line 4? Unless it's reporting a lot of hidden files/folders in 'media'?
Cheers
