The manual is always a good place to start when you have a question that needs answering. Visit our sister subreddit: r/TrueNAS Helpful Links Or if their login/password is not the same as the FreeNAS user created that they could map the drive using the FreeNAS user/group that has access to the share.FreeNAS is now TrueNAS CORE: Announcement My original plan was to have one share and when any one on the local network hit the nas box "storageserver" from windows network that it would then take them in and show them the various shares and if their login matched the user/group assigned to the share it would let them in. As you can see in the video example "gbcsecurity" has read/write access to the folder "Security - Directory" but when I try to access the share as that user it fails to authenticate. In my youtube example I broke the individual folders into separate shares thinking that might make a difference but it doesnt. When I went to Windows to modify the security permissions I would add certain users or groups to the folders inside the share but could never access them. When I was logged in with local account "btotel" which is also the data set owner I can access all the shares just fine. Hi Mirfster, I orginally had one share which was to the "data_pool" level.

I am hoping this is something I am not doing properly that this community can help me fix. Question 2: Why wont my users be able to access folders they have permissions to? Question 1: What should the permissions be on the root of the CIFS Share. This works great for the owner ID as I am logged in using the same ID but if any one else tries to authenticate to the share to access folder they have rights to in the CIFS share it wont connect. So what I am left with is the owner and group owner from FreeNAS. I have been removing the everyone as I dont want everyone to have access. The problem I have today is whenīy default FreeNAS creates the everyone, owner, and group ID from FreeNAS.

In theory when a user hits the share it will promt them to provide credentials to allow them access to the folders they have rights to below. I have that I want to either Block access to, Read, and Read/Write access to on various folders in the CIFS share.

I know how to modify windows permissions but here is where my problem begins.
#Freenas cifs permissions password#
The PC I am logged onto is using the user ID and password matching the user ID created in FreeNAS so when I touch the share I have instant access to the share.

The dataset permissions are set to Windows with my user ID "admin" as the owner and the group ID "Group" I have created a CIFS share to DataPool and I am able to see CIFS share in Windows. I have one data set called DataPool that has 10 folders as part of the data set. If I can explain what I am trying to do I hope that someone can tell me where I am going wrong in my logic. Hello all, I am having some issues, either technical or my own stupidity regarding permissions for accessing shares through CIFS.
