I am using windows 10 set SMB share permissions. I am using windows 10 to access the UnityVSA SMB shares. When I go to C$ I see the two file systems I created. Under the Profiles file system are the two SMB shares i mentioned earlier. When I go into the Profiles file system I cannot see the two SMB shares.
I figured it out. I setup a folder on the file system called Profiles and another called Homedir. Then I added the SMB share to each folder. So I can setup permissions on the folder instead of the share like I was trying to do. However, the permissions are not setting the owner correctly. The owner is showing as Administrators instead of the user. I disabled inheritance and setup the correct ACL's according to Microsoft documentation. Is there something I have to do in Unisphere? What does "Access Based Enumeration" do ?

Hi Dave,
Are you trying to set the permissions in Windows? Which Windows version is it?

Are you using a domain admin account? https://dell.to/3bhnigQ you may want to try the workaround even if you version is new enough to have the fix.

Hello DaveS166,
Here is a link to a KB that explains about Access Based Enumeration & how to configure it.

when you go through the C$ share you always see the disk structure and not shares

on Windows changing ACLs isnt supposed to change the owner
if you need a different owner then either that user has to create the directory or his account needs to take ownership
unlike in Unix with Windows an Adminstrator cannot chown a file/dir to a different owner
