Space Permissions

Right click on a space and select ‘View Share’ to edit the share permissions.

Share Path - The SMB or AFP path for the share used for mounting it to your computer.
Share Type - The protocol used for sharing, which should be SMB unless you are making a special share for use with MacOS Time Machine.
Allowed Groups - Add groups and give them read, write, and/or no access. This is the recommended way to grant access.
Allowed Users - Add users and give them read, write, and/or no access. Use groups for granting access whenever possible, unless you need to override group permissions.
Recursive - Apply the permissions to the entire file tree. Otherwise, saving the permissions will only affect the currently selected space and new files and folder created at the root.
Browsable - Allows the space to be listed as a share when connecting to the server on the network.
Writable - Allows users to write to the space.
Users Connected - Displays the information about each user connected to the space and the IP address they are connected from.

Right click on a folder or file and select ‘Permissions’ to control access.

Groups - Add groups and give them read, write, and/or no access. This is the recommended way to grant access.
Users - Add users and give them read, write, and/or no access. Use groups for granting access whenever possible, unless you need to override group permissions.
Recursive (Folders Only) - Applies permissions to all subfolders and files. Otherwise, saving the permissions will only affect the currently selected folder and any new files created directly within it.
