Help with groups, and group (scopes?)

[KenwoodFox]

Permissions always confuse me and Its just a mess every time I mess with them, I want to understand Unix permissions because 99% of the headache I have with FreeNAS is permissions not doing what I think they should be.

BTW thank you so much for reading this is a very personal issue, I just can't seem to understand the guides that exist about permissions.

I think that my dataset is recursively owned by jeff:media, so user jeff, and group media, I have another user, syncthing, which corresponds with the same UID to a user syncthing in a jail I want to have write and read access to this dataset, user syncthing does not own the dataset but shares an auxiliary group media.

But syncthing cant write to that dataset! And I'm unsure why!

Code:

ls -l
total 549713
drwxrwxr-x+  3 jeff   Media          3 Jan 28  2019 .config
drwxrwxr-x+  2 jeff   Media          3 Mar 22  2019 .ssh
drwxrwxr-x+  3 jeff   Media          5 Oct  3 13:43 bitmonero
drwxr-xr-x   2 jeff   Media          2 Feb 16 13:04 Documents
drwxrwxr-x+ 16 jeff   Media         16 Feb 16 12:56 Documents (Archived)
drwxrwxr-x+ 10 jeff   Media        151 Feb 16 13:08 Download Graveyard

Thank you so much for reading, I very much appreciate the help.

Which dataset are you talking about? The media group doesn't have write permissions on the Documents dataset (which is the only one with Unix permissions).

Sorry, I went inside the dataset in question and ranls -l are you saying that only on that particular folder Documents inside the dataset, Media does not have write access?

I pressed recursive when setting the permissions through the permissions manager, is there something else I need to do?
I tried using the ACL manager instead after updating the pool. Here are the results.

Code:

 ls -l
total 549713
drwxrwx---+  3 jeff  Media          3 Jan 28  2019 .config
drwxrwx---+  2 jeff  Media          3 Mar 22  2019 .ssh
drwxrwx---+  3 jeff  Media          5 Oct  3 13:43 bitmonero
drwxrwx---+  2 jeff  Media          2 Feb 16 13:04 Documents
drwxrwx---+ 16 jeff  Media         16 Feb 16 12:56 Documents (Archived)

Tried wiring in syncthing user to ACl, no luck.

Tried groups too
