How to change/reset owner of folder?
I have two folder and 1 file in the root of my share with owner/group set to "0 98". All others are "65534 65534". I'm able to access the files without problems, but I want to delete them, and that does not work. How can I reset the owner (or delete them?)
I managed to delete the folders using SSH. :)

What ReadyNAS are you using (and what firmware is it running)?
It's Duo v1. It says RAIDiator 4.1.13, not sure if that's the firmware versi
4.1.13 is the firmware.
Go into the frontview admin web interface.
Select shares/share listing on the left.
Then select the CIFS icon for the share with the problem.
Then select the "advanced options" tab on the upper left
Review the owner/group and rights in advanced share permissions, and set as desired.
Then check the box next to "set ownership and permission for existing files...", and click apply on the bottom right.
The checkbox will clear immediately, and the reset will happen in the background. There will be a pop-up when it completes.
