OK, so mwilliams' personal folder is assigned to user 33397, which does not exist, and group 32897, which probably doesn't either.
drwx------ 1 33397 32897 0 Jan 30 2020 mwilliams
His proper user GUID is 33988 and his group is 33281:
uid=33988(mwilliams) gid=33281(domain users)
So I think chown -R mwilliams:33281 mwilliams from the .home share should fix the problem.
If not, then chown -R 33988:33281 mwilliams.
If the first one works, then this script should do it for all:
cd /home
for dir in */; do chown -R "${dir%?}:33281" "$dir"; done
chown -R admin:admin adminI'm using the GID for the group because I'm not entirely sure how to handle the group name "domain users" with a space in it.
If you have to use the UID instead of the name to make it work, then it'll take a lot more to get that info, and it's probably easier to just do it manually unless hou have a huge number of affected users.
Im so disgusted with this site I could scream. 90 days free support.......'WHERE"
Try to post a questioin to community and it would not post because it did not have a LABEL.
Label.........what is a label. This is the most user unfriendly site I have ever used.NO instructions in the box .Can I get some info on set up? I only want to use hardwired so how hard can that be. Typical company cop out,no phone,no human,go ask our unpaid volunteers to do our work in the community if you can find a label so you have permission to post. This is beyond ridiculous.And on top of that my router model number does not match any in the drop down menu.Can someone give me some suggestions please?
Thank you

From one of these unpaid volunteers if you don't mind ...
The support contacts can vary with the region/country. Register your product on my.netgear.com and you will have the option to access support.

Agree to some point - where labels are required there are some "generic" ones predefined like "Firmware" "Support" "Installation", ready to click.
The added value of these labels? In a world of full text search engines - my opinion null and nil. Just nasty overhead dear ChristineT.
And I understand the person posted here off-topic, because there are no lables requested here.

Seriously? I strongly doubt. Any form of Set-up or Quick Start Guide including the basic set-up process and assistance for the product registration (for warranty and support purposes) is always in place. If missing, head to https://www.netgear.com/support/ and enter your model number or name - and you will be guided to the product for Downloads, Documentation, Guided Assistance, here for example for the R9000. The Documentation section is your friend to start with - there you will find docs like Quick Start, Installation, User Manual.

Available products are (not always fully complete or up2date why ever) available in the relevant forum section only. Now please re-read your post - can't find any information of the product you try to install (except of a probably random, almost one decade old router selected model tag).
Happy to guide you to the right community section - permitting you let us know what Netgear product and model version you have got there.
