    Docker Volumes on TrueNAS CORE Shares

    My idea was to set up an Ubuntu VM on my TrueNAS CORE 12.0-U1 box running Docker and use a share for all the persistent data. This will have many benefits like snapshots and easy access to the data. Very soon I realized that it is not as easy as it looks. Containers really often want to set...

    Invisible SMB Files - Fixing/Copying ACLs

    Clone shared directories to FreeNAS, including ACLs

    Hi, we are trying to migrate all shared directories (each one has different ACLs) from a box to a new FreeNAS box. As they are too many and we also need to set the same ACLs, I was wondering if maybe is there some method to do that. For instance, let's say we have: \\ARES (including the...

    getent passwd showing all users in AD but not shown in pools permissions

    Hi, I guess we have correctly joined our FreeNAS to our AD (getent passwd shows all users (more than 26000)) but in the pools permissions dropdowns they are not shown. Any idea about what may be happening? Thanks.
