Hello,
I am trying to solve a problem that has been discussed elsewhere in this forum, but not quite working for me. My transmission setup includes a mount point:
Source:
/mnt/NAS/media/_torrents
Destination:
/mnt/NAS/jail/software/usr/pbi/transmission-amd64/etc/transmission/home/Downloads
Also I access /mnt/NAS/media via windows share (i.e. //NAS/media). I can access files (rwx) in this directory via this windows share.
My original transmission setup successfully downloaded files, which were also visible via the mount point /mnt/NAS/media/_torrents. However I was not able to delete files or directories via windows share (I did so using via shell session using the freenas web gui).
Having followed the instructions in this thread: (http://forums.freenas.org/showthread.php?8175-Transmission-folder-permissions) vis changing "umask": 0, I am now able to delete files created via transmission, but not directories (or rename them).
ls -l on the directory created reports:
drwxrwxrwx 2 40002 40002 2 Oct 4 21:22 Directory
Again, this can be deleted via a shell session through the web gui, but not via a windows "session".
I think it is a permission issue, but I'm not familiar enough with unix like systems to really understand where to start looking, or what I am looking for, let alone concepts like jails etc..
Any help would be appreciated.
regards
PiP
