Yes, update to the beta firmware, then use the Advanced Options tab to fix the ownership. There are lots of threads on this already.

Re: nobody nogroup

Thanks for info i will try it.
"There are lots of thread already" ?? Strange, because searching on the site did not return anything other than options to install remote admin access and work with netgear support.
Access to devices on loval networks will not happen so i needed other options. I must have missed lots of related threads.....
What should i have done to find them??

Re: nobody nogroup

Well there are several threads (I know as I've posted in most of them). You can use the forum search or use Google. Sometimes one is better than the other for finding threads.

After downgrading to 4.1.8 or updating to 4.1.10 beta in Frontview go to Shares > Share Listing > Sharename > CIFS, click on Advanced Options tab, choose owner and group, check "Set ownership and permission..." and click apply.

On 4.1.9 the ownership will be reset every reboot so you do need to move off 4.1.9 firmware for the fix to work.

Googling with 4.1.9 permissions site:readynas.com returns 712 hits at the moment.
