Re: Cifs administrative access push to the entire qtree

I typically make the domain account for the administrators a local administrator on the NAS.

Good question.

You could try setting inheritable ACE on top-level directory. As long as users did not add explicit Deny entries or did not block inheritance it should suffice. Note that explicit denials always override explicit grants, so just *adding* ACE may not be sufficient anyway.

I could not find explicit statement, but fsecurity appears to replace existing DACL. I suppose one possibility would be

•      Dump existing DACLs using somesing like “icacl /save”
  
  

•      Convert result into valid fsecurity job definition
  
  

•      Add necessary ACEs
  
  

•      Apply
  
  
  
  

But it may not work if access to folders/files is blocked. In this case it is possible to create task that runs as e.g. SYSTEM to do it.

C-Mode looks better as it allows editing individual ACEs.

Greetings,

I inherited a group of filer that are heavily cifs. There are multiple clusters of different hardware and different OS levels. All are 7-mode.

What the managers found is that people have changed directory permissions and excluded administrators or people with full control. When a problem pops up they have to find one of the directory owners to get added in order to fix an issue.

We don't really want to push the permissions to all sub-directories in an overwrite mode because we could break tool access, or grant access people may not have had before, etc.

Is there a way to add administrators to a tree from the NetApp or a way to do this that doesn't remove previous access control? The managers already have full control at the share level.

Thanks,

Jeff
