OOPPPPS you need to reboot and then the above worked. Ok if anyone would like to give me a little hint about which directory I need to give permissions to and which I can reverse to what it was like before?
Brrrr. Ok, the hint. /shares/MYVOLUME1/MYSHARE1/<your choice>
Because you took /shares you have changed the rights for all there is. Apart from starting all over I don't think it's easy to revert your changes.
But maybe someone pops up with a script to do so.
