jcbond Posted May 13, 2020 Report Share Posted May 13, 2020 I have been getting some random permission errors on Resilio Sync when using to sync two Netgear ReadyNas units. I wanted to double check what setting should I have under the Security Tab File Access: Folder Owner should be what? Folder Group should be what?

Andy+ Posted May 13, 2020 Report Share Posted May 13, 2020 From my Synology glasses I would say "root", but I don't think anyone can finally clarify that here. Perhaps this can be better clarified in the Netgear forum. If I have authorization problems, I reset all ACLs in the concerned directory via the console to root:root, octal 0777 and overwrite them again on the NAS with the NAS ACLs and inherit them into the subfolders. So far, this has eliminated all problems. But I have Synology Servers and I don't know if that work for your Netgears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcbond Posted May 13, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2020 Thank you but when I switched it over to root, I started to get many more error messages. I have now switched them to Admin on both so that the Admin user is the owner of the files. I am assuming that Resilio Sync is running under the Admin account, and not the root account.
