So I built a setup. and had it all working. I could access my SMB/CIFS shared folder via my windows tablet, windows pc, linux laptop and android phone. I setup wireguard and could access it all from outside the home too.
Then i decided to add nextcloud and it all worked at first but then nextcloud threw up an error saying i needed to set permission 0770 on my shared folder which i i did like this
:/srv/dev-disk-by-uuid-c62b7aa2-3062-4cc8-8cdd-bd3dc111105e# chmod -R 0770 DATA
that worked and i regained access to nextcloud but was now unable to access my /DATA folder
so i got rid of nextcloud and reset all my permissions on the /DATA folder my using the above command on 666, but it didn't work
so i went into OMV and used resetperms on it, and then into SHARED FOLDERS-PERMISSIONS and also SF-ACL and ensured that all the settings were read-write-execute for owner, group and others ----still no luck
i then created a new shared folder and set it up as i had set up my /DATA folder and I can't access that either
any suggestions on how to resolve this would be appreciated
