Standard settings shares does not give full access

Hi

 

I have a Readynas Ultra 6 with RAIDiator 4.2.22.

Recently I had to do a factory reset. Now I am reconfiguring the NAS. I got stuck creating the shares. I read several topics on the matter; but this was not helping.

 

My goal: I just want to add a share with unlimited acces, so no restrictions for all (it is just me anyways).

The problem:

I add a share by filling in the name and description. I keep the "public access" checked.

As I interpreted the guidance from the internet; this should just be enough to optain goal.

 

But; when SABNZB downloads something; it does not give me access to the sub folder (I can enter the share, see the downloaded folder, but cannot access it).

Sab NZB does have full access (download; unpak in different share)

 

My question is; what setting do I use when I want my laptop and my media player to have full access?

    Allow Guest Access: checked

     

    Advanced CIFS Permission

    Automatically set permissions on new files and folders. checked

     

    When new files are created over CIFS...

    Group rights:  read/write

    Everyone rights: read/write

     

    When new folders are created over CIFS...

    Group rights:  read/write

    Everyone rights: read/write

     

    On Advanced Options:

    Share folder owner:  nobody

    Share folder group: nogroup

    Share folder group rights: read/write

    Share folder everyone rights:  read/write

      Hi

      Thanks for your reply

       

      Unfortunatly that did not do the trick.

      I see the share in windows, I can open it; but the folder it should download is not accessable.

       

      The funny thing is; after that did not work; I also checked" Set ownership and permission for existing files and folders to the above settings. This option is ueful in cases where you are changing security level and you need to workaround files access problems".

       

      This then works for all excisting folders. But after I make new ones; I need to do that again.That is not a desired option.

      Did you ever came across this issue? Any thoughts on what I am doing wrong? Any help is appreciated.
