RN524X Default User Permissions Reset to Default???

Are you seeing files in the user shares that are owned by root?  If so, do you have users mounting shares with the root username?

There is a lot of stuff in the OS partition that is owned by root, and you shouldn't mess with that.  When you access the NAS via ssh, you should log in as root. You shouldn't be accessing shares with those credentials (though you can use admin).

Can anyone please tell me what the default share owners and groups should be for both system accounts and a hyperthetical user called fred.

The default owner/group for the share itself is the owner/group that is configured in the file access page in the share settings.  When you log in as fred, then any files you store into the share are owned by fred (with the group set to his group).

Since upgrading (may be coincidental) I have started having weird problems with regard to share access (SMB NFS etc) from Windows Laptops. The ussr needs to re-enter the password of the login user everytime.

Is this only happening after restart (or coming out of sleep)?  Or is it happening on every access?  I do sometimes see a failure to re-mount a persistently mapped drive when I reboot a PC, but I think that's a windows issue, not a NAS issue.

Did you try clearing the credentials from the Windows credential manager, and entering them again?
