I'm having issue with giving ownership of files and folders to someone else even when I'm the present owner.

I can however take the ownership even when someone else is the owner if I have right permissions. We have a scenario where some departmental admins are copying the data for users and should be able to give back the ownership to the users however it's not working from windows side of management.

I can change the ownership on files and folders being Isilon Admin as well as if I give run as root for the share but both these options are not suitable for our use case.

Are there any settings that are prohibiting this from happening? I have write_dac, write_owner for the users as well as full permission on the share.

Thanks.
