Ah yes, how could I forget that one, the most hassle-free solution.
You do trade security for that simplicity though. As with all permissions dilemma, the tradeoffs are always security vs simplicity.

If the transmission download folder is below the CIFS share, I think you can open permissions without fear, assuming they are restricted at the sharing level(above). Everybody has to do their homework to managed their shares as they expect, finding as you say, the "right" point between security and simplicity.

hello

I have another problem ... I can not enable the folder for incomplete downloads.
always in the file settings.json, I changed the line:
"incomplete-dir": "/ / Downloads" to "incomplete-dir": "media / Downloads Torrents / inc"
and then
"incomplete-dir-enabled": false, "incomplete-dir-enabled": true,

I saved the file
I replaced the old file
I tried to restart the service transmission
gives me this error:
SPECIAL EXPECTED - remaining text "media / Downloads Torrents / inc??"
and the service will not start

even if I edit the file and get back the old lines the service will not start

Can you help me?

Thank you very much!!

I think you got a syntax error. Use CODE tags please.

I'm not 100% sure on this, but I believe you're getting the error because you have an invalid entry here:
Code:
"incomplete-dir": "//Downloads",

You need to replace //Downloads with a real valid path.

Two things:
  1. Are you using the full path of that folder?
  2. Did you check permissions of that folder?

One more thing:
Do you stop/start the service before/after modifications?

Oh yeah:
  1. Stop service
  2. Modify settings.json
  3. Save and close
  4. Start service
Failure to follow these steps and modifying the settings.json file while the service is running will cause the file to discard your changes and revert itself to its previous state.

First of all thanks for your interest!

Detailed list of the tests that I run:

1 file. json to defoult only enabled directory incomplete changing false to true
2 files. Json changed: changed "/ / Donwnloads" with "usr/pbi/transmission-amd64/etc/transmission/home/incomplete." the incomplete folder had been created earlier and its permissions were 777
3 files. Json changed: changed folder downloads (/ media), umask changed (18 to 0), changed from false to true trash. Torrent file. Set incomplete folder: / media / Inc

in all the tests I stopped the service, I changed. json file saved. json file, restart the service and here I appeared the error that I posted earlier

Test No. 3 in the media folder of jail by pointing to the storage directory / mnt / media / downloads Transmission

thank you

I think you're missing a / in front of usr. It should be like so:
Code:
"/usr/pbi/transmission-amd64/etc/transmission/home/incomplete"
