Permission, ACL and groups, something broke - I don't know what.

Hi all,

I upgraded from omv3 to 4 the other day and some app lost read permission on a share, wanting to fix it I entered some kind of crazy permission maze and I'm not sure where I am right now.

In short I have a "media" folder/share. On this folder I would like to :

  • have a user (me) with all godly power (rwx)
  • have a group for some software with read and write (rw-)
  • have another group for regular user with only read (r--) - samba access

At the moment me and appgroup can read and write but I cannot read what appgroup creates and usergroup cannot do shite.

ACL are set up to give the right access to each group and permissions are:

  • user: me rwx
  • group: appgroup rw-
  • other: r--

As this doesn't work, what is the best practices to "reset" the state of the folder then setup the permission properly?

Thanks a lot !
