This is a more detailed article on the security model

If the answer does not fall out of the above troubleshooters (or you need access to NOW), please contact customer support. I would suggest having the qtree type, the output of wcc –u root, and the reported ACL for the directory you are trying to write to available when you call. You should also report the version of the filer and the version of the client. They should be able to solve this very quickly.

Subject: NT Permissions and Unix

Greetings:

We have a NetApp 740 filer running ONTAP 5.3.6R2.  We have created a qtree on vol0 set up as NTFS with full control local and share permissions granted to Everyone (although later we want to clamp this down).  We want one of our UNIX servers to be able to write to a subdirectory inside this qtree, but it will not work.  When we try to do a RCP into that subdirectory from the UNIX box as root, we get a permission denied error.  What are we missing?
