What protocol are you accessing the shares by - SMB, NFS?
1. Sorry, I don't know what the SMB NFS or what protocol is. It's doubtful I'd be able to answer that question unless you told me exactly where to look.
I have Folders called TV and Movies on my NAS. They are shared with 2 user accounts on my NAS's OS. The Name of the NAS's OS is simply called DSM. So in DSM, I have set those to shared with the 2 user accounts within the Synology OS.
2. As far as the Windows machine, where the JF server software is installed, I couldn't tell you what kind of status the folders have right now. Viewing the folders in Windows file explorer, all I can say is they look just like ordinary windows folders, except their parent folders have little green pipes next to the folder icon.
So, assuming, just as an educational exercise if I was using "SMB protocol" and my server's name was BozosNAS, and I wanted to share the folder "Movies" it would be \\BozosNAS\Movies ? Or 192.168.x.x\Movies ? WHat goes in the x places? How would I find that information?
Now that I'm looking at your first link my reaction is, yes, you can be sure I did that process months ago when I put it together. It was one of the first steps.
I don't know what a Docker container is.
And now I'm working through the guide you linked last, and I am at an impasse because after I executed the task to find my UID & GID, I found my Synology Quick Connect is borked and it's a whole other ticket. I ran the task, but until I fix this other thing, I won't be able to set those variables. I'll try to fix whatever is preventing me from connecting to my email, and I'll bookmark this conversation.
Thanks for your help, I think I'm on the right path.
