1 TopicI cannot delete the .AppleDB folder as permission is denied, even in FTP as admin
I have a ReadyNAS 104. For years now, I have not been able to delete half of the littered Apple AFP folders and files that spread themselves across my shares from when I also had a MAC on my network accessing this device. I have managed to delete most but some still linger with the permission denied error. I have upgrades to the latest firmware v6.7.5 (which I didn't think would make any difference). I have tried to take ownership over FTP under admin but get the following error:- 550 CHMOD 666 cnid2.db: Operation not permitted When I try and delete the folder in Windows, I get permission denied error. Looking at the security tab, it looks like the owner of .AppleDB and its contained files could be root (Unix User\root) and/or root (Unix Group\root). These files are:- cnid2.db db_errlog lock log.0000000002 Can I log in to the unit, get to the share and delete these files and folders under some kind of super admin user? SSH, or something would be good? Please help! It has been driving me mad for over 4 years! Thanks, JohnSolved7.1KViews0likes4Comments
