I have FreeTrueNAS running on a dedicated server in my home (on bare metal). I use a combination of Windows and Ubuntu devices to access the server regularly. This week, I upgraded from 11.3 to 12.0-U1.
Now, I already know the problem, in that I was accessing SMBs with the "root" user before. That's no longer allowed. Makes sense. So I changed the ownership account to be something like "johnsmith" and the group account to be something like "my group". I set everything to full control. I attached to Windows devices without problem, and used fstab to automatically mount in Ubuntu:
Here's what's strange:
Windows can access, read, and write no problem. Fast.
Ubuntu can navigate it (everything shows up in the Ubuntu explorer and in the command line). But Ubuntu can only read and write to it... intermittently?
I am able to create small files on it. I am able to copy small files off of it. But if I try copying anything larger (hundreds of MB+), or writing (hundreds of MB+), it works for a few seconds and then fails. It returns different errors at random:
or
I'm a bit baffled because it is working in small amounts.
There's nothing wrong with the connection. It worked totally fine before, for many months. And it works totally fine in Windows.
Does anyone know how I can solve this? I've read a few threads in here that I thought might relate, but I've been troubleshooting this for 12 hours now and I need to figure it out to provide the family with movies for Christmas!
