AD permissions, only owner can write in root directory of share

Hi,

 

I created a share on an RN104 (latest firmware) that is set to AD authentication. Below are the settings.

 

Share permissions:

p1

 

Settings -> Network Access

p2

 

Settings -> File Access

p3

p4

 

Now, if I connect to the share with the user admhu_gener, I can write in the root directory. If I connect with another user that is a member of the group hubud_it4nas, I can't write in the root directory, but I can write in deeper directories and I can delete from the root directory.

 

Why is this and what settings are needed that let other users than the owner write in the root directory?
