Hi guy's,
I'm new to Linux and Freenas so please be patient... I have set up my FreeNAS-8.0.4-RELEASE-p2-x64 box at home using a 4gb SanDisk Cruiser USB flash disk. I'm using a Asus P5QPL-VM EPU 775 motherboard with a Core2Duo E6400 processor & 4GB DDR2 RAM. I have 4x 160gb Western Digital IDE HDD's (with IDE-SATA adapters) plugged directly into the motherboard. I've set up a RaidZ volume using the 4 drives with some users and groups added. I also have another IDE WD 80gb drive which is connected to the motherboards main IDE slot. I intend to use this to serve my ftp service.
Everything was working fine (& still is) apart from the problem where I can't access the volume 'Change Permissions' of either volume. I keep getting the message 'sorry, an error occurred' when I click to modify permissions. This is the second time I've had this problem, last time I had the 'Type of ACL' set to UNIX and opened up (checked all the boxes for 'owner', 'group' & 'other'). I changed this setup slightly the second time round by having the 'Type of ACL' set to windows as most of my other machines are using windows xp. Previously when I couldn't get access to the volume permissions I just exported the entire RaidZ volume (deleted everything) and started again. Things worked ok for a while again but it seems to be after I setup some users & groups, suddenly I can't access the volume permissions any more.
I created a separate volume using the 80GB HDD (for my ftp) and I can no longer access the 'Change Permissions' here either. Although this time I've set up CIFS shares and copied data over from my windows network so I don't really want to start over. So I was wondering if anyone has any ideas on how I can resolve this issue.
I tried removing some of the users & groups but sill no access. I have also checked the forum here, wiki & the net for answers but it seems to be rare problem as I can't find an answer.
I'm thinking/hoping I have missed something & that there is an easy fix.
Any help will be much appreciated.
Thanks
