Many of Poussin's older apps have a problem because of a change to the defaults in Samba. At some point, insecure wide links became blocked in Samba by default, and that got into a ReadyNASOS update when Samba was updated. It is there as a security measure, to prevent inadvertent opening of a back door. In some apps, Poussin uses wide links (symlinks outside of a share path) to make it possible for files associated with the add-on to be accessed without going into SSH to access a folder in /apps. When the default location can be changed, as in your case, that's usually the best way to do it. But if the location is hard-coded, as is often the case for configuration files, then you can create /etc/frontview/samba/addons/addon.conf with the following entries (shown here with ddclient as the app, and also the share name, that needs it).
[global] allow insecure wide links = yes unix extensions = no [ddclient] follow symlinks = yes wide links = yes
I believe that this poiint that unix extensions = no is the default, but I added it in case that ever changes, since allowing insecure wide links and unix extensions are mutually exclusive. /etc/frontview/samba/addons/addon.conf is the best place for it, as it is not overwritten by OS updates. It's also not over-written by an OS re-install, so don't mess it up to a point that would be needed.
