Migrating Windows Server 2008 share permissions to synology NAS

access-control-listfile-permissionssynologywindows-server-2008

A customer has a Synology RS815+, using DSM 6.0.2-8451 Update 3. It has a btrfs volume. We want to migrate an existing CIFS share including timestamps and permissions. Timestamps are no problem, but the permissions do not copy over. Steps to reproduce:

  1. Domain join NAS
  2. Create share
  3. Give domain users 'custom' rights, including 'change permissions' rights.
  4. Use robocopy /COPYALL / TotalCmd with 'copy NTFS permissions' option / fastcopy with 'ACL' activated to copy files
  5. Permissions not copied.

Best Answer

The permissions were actually copied correctly. However, under Server 2008, the Owner shows up separately under the security tab, on a Synology Share it doesn't. The permissions are still correct, however.
