folder owner, how does it work? I don't know how I fixed my problem :)
Hi, I'm just setting up a newly bought ReadyNAS 312 and having some difficulties with basic tasks. I couldn't see my share but I apparently "fixed" the problem. The problem now is I don't know how...
Hello,
From my experience the best setup is to leave file access unrestricted (allow access for everyone) and impose restrictions using network access only. From a security point of view, this will not be a problem as file access rights will not overrule network access restrictions.
Bye,

Thanks everybody for helping me.
For sure I need to dig more into file permissions and protocols.. and the manual :)
I still honestly don't understand why we can change the "folder owner" in the file access (drop list menu) settings and what affects: every folder in the share? all new folders created in the share?
Sorry to keep bothering...
