I have a ReadyNAS 314 withthe expansion unit and I would like to either change the existing user or create a new user with admin permissions so that they can remove files from the NAS. As it is now there is a user account with only r/w and an admin account. I would like the user account to be able to use their existing login to have the permission to delete or move files.
The unit is a ReadyNAS 314
Firmware: 6.6.1
Desktops: Windows 10 Professional
This is used in a non AD windows network with a few users who have access to the NAS.
Thanks

Snapshot management is not the same as adding/changing/deleting files and folders in the shares.
To delete a snapshot, you log into the admin UI, go to the share lisitng and select "recover". Then you can right-click on one or more snapshots and delete them. This can only be done by the admin.

Someone with R/W access to the share should be able to delete files already.

Re: Add user with admin permission to shares on ReadyNas 314
Thanks for that, I assumed it was like most other NAS units where you can use the admin account on the computer to do the normal things to files/folders.

Re: Add user with admin permission to shares on ReadyNas 314
You can do "normal tings" with normal files and folders via SMB with an admin login. But BTRFS snapshots are not normal files and folders.
