Unix File permission issues

hello, hopefully someone can help.

for /ifs/siteA I have ran the following commands to remove the default permissions, this was to replicate removing the everyone share permission.

  • chmod -b 770 foldername

  • chmod +a group "domain\Data_Full" allow dir_gen_all,object_inherit,container_inherit foldername

our network appliances connect over via NFS and all looks good.

We now have another linux appliance that I can't get to work, I can mount the drive from this applaince but it appears that despite trying 777 I can't get the appliance to write files.   Permission denied.  

if I connect it /ifs/nfs then it works ok, but that isn't a suitable location as I can't SYNQIQ it to siteB or to our backup environment. 

so my question is it possible to reset the folder permissions or add back in the default style permissions?

any help would be appreciated

Hi,

Thanks for your question.

The permission repair job might help. https://dell.to/485d8L3

Let us know if you have any additional questions.

you can always run a permission repair job over another directory that works to a test directory, and then experiment on that then check the current extended permissions with

ls -led

and you might notice something that is blocking it, 

I have had a similar experience before unfortunately on a live environment, doing something similar to the below, perhaps with the creator_owner as well might work 

chmod -R +a group Users allow dir_gen_read,dir_gen_execute,object_inherit,container_inherit,inherited_ace foldername
chmod -R +a group Users allow std_synchronize,add_file,add_subdir,container_inherit,inherited_ace foldername
chmod -R +a group Administrators allow dir_gen_all,object_inherit,container_inherit,inherited_ace  foldername
