Share permission

Question

I create a “Media” Share on the NAS, &nbsp;&nbsp;the CIFS panel shows its default access as Read/Write.&nbsp; I also have the allow&nbsp;&nbsp; [x ] Guest access option checked.After non thing was working I also set the advance CIFS permissions to&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; [x] Automatically set permission on new files and folder on&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; [x] Do not allow ACL changes to be more restrictive than this.&nbsp; On .&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;Read/rights for groups and everyone.&nbsp;I was surprise to be asked for user name and password when viewing the share via windows when GUEST OPTION is checked.&nbsp;&nbsp;My other issues issue that I am getting permission denied errors when I mount the share on another system.&nbsp;How can I fix both these issues?&nbsp; The password prompting and the permission denied, they may be related. But not really sure.&nbsp;Thanks for the assistance.

By default, Windows will present the windows log on/password to the NAS. &nbsp;If there is a credential stored in the credential manager that will be presented.
&nbsp;
There are three cases:
&nbsp;
(a) the presented logon does not match a NAS account.
In this case, the PC gets "guest access"
&nbsp;
(b) The presented logon matches a NAS account, and the password does also.
In this case the PC gets whatever access the NAS account allows.
&nbsp;
(c) The presented logon matches a NAS account, but the password does not.
In this case, the logon fails, and you get prompted for a logon/password.

How are you mounting the share?
&nbsp;
Is this happening on all files, or just some folders and files.

(Same user name, Same Password)2- Mount NAS Share as USER1 (Working)3 – Check write permission on Mounted NAS Volume. Working, with read/Write4 – Checked permission of the Downloaded file to make sure it was R/W5 – Checked the service to make sure it is running as the same user“USER1 1128 0.4 0.2 1731016 40376 ? Sl 08:08 0:02 /usr/bin/python CouchPotato.py --quiet --daemon --pid_file=/home/USER1/.couchpotato/couchpotato.pid –dat”6 – Checked the mount premonition with the mount command“//192.168.101.3/Media on /mnt/NasOne type cifs (rw)”[/list]&nbsp;When folders are create with the user1 account they are created with no write permission.&nbsp;What I am I missing? &nbsp;ARGGGGG!!!! &nbsp; &nbsp; Thank you for the assistance. &nbsp;
