It might be worth posting the linux ACL (which I am not seeing in your images). The acl in my previous post was examined with network access set to everyone rw, and file permissions restricting access to the group to ro. AFAICT that did propagate correctly.

Testing with ssh:

enfants@NAS:~$ cd /data/enfants2
enfants@NAS:/data/enfants2$ ls -al
total 100
drwxrwx---+ 1 guest guest    82 Nov 15 19:43 .
drwxr-xr-x  1 root  root    530 Nov 12 19:20 ..
-rwxrwx---+ 1 admin admin 36981 Nov 12 19:12 FileAccess.png
-rwxrwx---+ 1 admin admin 27040 Nov 12 19:11 NetworkAccess.png
enfants@NAS:/data/enfants2$ rm NetworkAccess.png
rm: remove write-protected regular file 'NetworkAccess.png'? y
rm: cannot remove 'NetworkAccess.png': Permission denied

I will test later again with a new share

Meanwhile: can you hint me how to make the forum accept images like you did ? I tried png, jpg, resize image, make it public... it never works. That way my next post will be easier to look at

Unfortunately I don't have a good suggestion there - I've seen several other posts recently where the images didn't come out consistently. All I did was use the photos tool in the toolbar.

I have a couple of elevated privileges as a superuser, which might account for why mine rendered correctly. Images often do need to be flagged for mod approval, but recently I've seen some that failed to render even though they were approved. So I am thinking there was a recent change to the forum software, and there might be a bug.

Up until very recently, I lost the Photos tool for many months, but now it's back. I know some, including much newer users than I, have always had it. So, maybe there are some who still don't or have not noticed they do now have it.
