Hi all,
I've been digging through resources for days-- google, the forum search, and rewatched m0nkey_'s awesome vids once more to make sure I didn't miss the bit I'm after--to no avail.
Scenario:
FreeNAS 9.10.2 U2. I have a Windows VM that I'm successfully able to access a shared CIFS/SMB share on using my username. I followed m0nkey_'s video previously in setting this up. The issue I'm trying to solve is giving the local system account write privs. There's a service (PlayOn) running as the Local System account, and it does not behave correctly if I change it to run as my user instead. When I'm logged in, I can write to the share perfectly as expected, but the service fails to write (permission denied) when it needs to. Based on everything I've read, this just seems to be some basic mapping of a user into the FreeNAS group associated with the share, but I have not been able to figure out what user properties to create to make it map up properly.
Can anyone point me in the correct direction? Many thanks!
