Everyone No Access
I work in a shop with a bunch of Macs and one PC using a central, shared storage RAID. The Macs are running Yosemite. When we create new folders on the Macs, the permissions they generate say for Everyone: No Access”. Consequently, I cannot open the folders on the PC unless I walk over to a Mac, find the folder, and change it’s permissions. I believe this has something to do with umask on the Mac. I tried running “sudo launchctl config user umask 001” on the Macs, but it made no difference. Is anyone out there in a shared environment with Macs and PC’s who might have an answer for this? It’s really becoming a pain in the ***.

Hi Mitch.
Are all the machines bonded through Active Directory? If yes, that is what sets the permission per user/group vs. it being a Premiere issue.

I’m not familiar with Active Directory, so I don’t know the answer to that. We are all connected to the central RAID by fiber and a fiber card. Can you tell me more about it?

Is there a IT department taking care of all the equipment? Or are you all just “rebels” getting it done 🙂 You could jump over to the Storage forum and see if Bob Zelin or one of the other forum leaders has some ideas. It’s a pretty deep dive when dealing with multiple systems and permissions, so you don’t want to change things on a individual level that could come back and bite you if the machines were getting their permissions from Active Directory.

We do have an IT department. Thank you for pointing me in the right direction.
