Sorry… typo on the /volume1:/volume
. Should be /volume1:/volume1
If you use chmod
on Syno, things break. DSM is an ACL-driven machine.
You can set ownership and restore ACLs using FileStation.
Here is my “Animated” movies on the syno.
Notice “Owner” has full control.
Now, at the shell level, observe:
chuck@ds418:/volume1/Animated$ ls -l
total 420

- ACLs are still present (
+
exists in the bit flags) - my username is the owner
root
is still the syno default. – which doesnt’ matter but I’d leave it alone.
I am suggesting,
- A recursive
chown
of the username only. Don’t apply a group. - After applying the chown, Open filestation and set the permissions as I show above (PlexMediaServer, admin, and your username)
