Title: Subfolders permissions
Post by: Sagitario on March 23, 2017, 01:00:02 PM
Hello,

It's possible to create a sub-folder permission different that the main share?

For example: I have 1 share with the name "Test" and I give all users only read permissions. Then inside the "Test" share I have 10 folders that I only want to give read permissions to nine of that folders. The tenth folder have a name "END" and I want to give full access (read/write) too all users but because this is a "Test" sub folder it inherits the read only permission.

I know that I can create a new share of the sub folder "END" and give full access. An then it will show the "End" share aside the "Test" folder. The problem is that I pretend to maintain a logic structure which is the "END" inside the "Test". An then even if I do another share of "END" folder, if a user try to access to the "END" folder through the "Test" share, it will received a not write allow error.

This example that I give is only to demonstrate. I my real case de "End" folder is inside 4 other sub folders... ( Test > York > North > Add > End)

Regards,

Yes... it's not possible.

After calling D-Link Support Center they tell me that this NAS is made for home users so that function isn't supported.  :(

The only option is to create a second share... and force users to go out of the original structure and enter in the second share.
