I can understrand this completely. As I have a family in my house which also want to access some files, I wanted to have this under full windows control, just with editing the permission on the shares with my computer. Nevertheless:While all my computers at home are Windoze, my FreeNAS is setup as Unix. This makes things very simple and I do not worry about authentication issues since I'm on a closed network and I don't have kids to start deleting things by accident. If I need to ever do some authentication at a later date, I'll tackle it then.
THANK YOU
You solved the riddle. I tried it with adding the dlna user in my group 1001 and it dindt worked - but with you hint of "make it readable for others" it is just working fine now.
I got a dataset called stuff and on this dataset all permissions are set as it was before. But under this dataset is a folder "movies" where the files are, I want to share in the local network. I leave everything with windows style, but added "everyone" with read-only permissions, and it worked. So only the authorized user can access the dataset and the share itselft, and the underneeth folder is accessable for miniDLNA and not visible for unauthorized users.
Much appreciate for our input. ;)
Yes I know everythign could be done simple, but with a safe permission structure everything is getting more - time intensive :/
