Q: OSX Server share permission
Hi All,
We have a OSX server (10.9.5) that has an external drive connected by thunderbolt. A few weeks ago we had a Windows server connected to it and OSX used AD to connect and pull permissions / groups etc. This all worked great. Now we got rid of the windows server and since then we have been having a nightmare.
The share we have from the external drive (and even if we create a share on the main HD) keeps having permission issues. For example, a person will be able to open the share, open an excel document but when they go to save it, it says its read only. What seems to be happening is permissions are set for the user that creates the file, but read only for everyone else, even though we have set everyone to read/write and made a group with all the users and set it to read/write.
As i said, tried creating two other shares and get people saving a fresh on there, removed all the permissions through the server management, tried stripping the permissions in the terminal and nothing seems to work!
Please help!
OS X Mavericks (10.9.5)
