Error when trying to reset permissions 6.1.9 case 23936891

Ever since upgrading from 6.1.9 RC to the final version 6.1.9, I receive an error message when trying to reset file permissions for any of my 6 shares.


The error message says cannot set file access, and to check specified user/group exists. facl_change fail uid 99 gid 99
Are these the uid and gid for nouser and nogroup? Obviously I don't have these as one of my users or groups. And all my uids and gids not 99.

I have opened a support case, but wondered whether anyone else has seen this behaviour.

I was disappointed that in the list of enhancements in 6.2.0 there is no change to the reset permissions behaviour, at least to make it behave like the function in OS4.
