ReadyNAS/ReadyCloud: How to set up a share with different access levels?
Hi you all, I would like to grant different access rights to different ReadyCloud users at directory structure level. Suppose the share structure looks like this: /topdir /subdir1 /su...
Hi AMK64,
As you know, for readynas, acl permission is set based on the whole share, not subfolder in share.
If you want to set permision for subfolder in share, you can use setfacl command for subfolder in share to achive this. But i have a concern. Do you puchase your readynas in last 90 days( which is free support period ) or beyound of 90 days?
If you are still in free Support period, strongley recommended don't turn on ssh service and use setfacl command.
If you are beyound of 90 Days and you don't mind, you can turn on ssh service and use setfacl command to achive your goal.
You can setfacl for user2, user3. For example: Under topdir,
setfacl -R -m user:user1:rwx subdir1
setfacl -dR -m user:user1:rwx subdir1
setfacl -R -m user:user2:--- subdir1
setfacl -dR -m user:user2:--- subdir1
setfacl -R -m user:user2:rwx subdir2
setfacl -dR -m user:user2:rwx subdir2
setfacl -R -m user:user1:--- subdir2
setfacl -dR -m user:user:--- subdir2.
PS: If you setfacl with shares or subfolders with setfacl command, don't change "File Access" tab for the share again. As it maybe impact on facl for share.
Hope it is useful.
Best Regards.
