Batchmod app archive#
Notes: Sometimes I use 'Batchmod' ( get from Internet Archive now the original site no longer works: ) or chmod, chgrp, chown if I am having trouble changing the file ownership before the above steps, it's not always necessary. This might take a while(30 minutes or more, depending in the size of the share), you need to wait.
Batchmod app install#
I have my own admin account on the mini, then a small handful of users with local accounts on the mini (added through the Users panel) in a single Group which I've given access to the fileshare. When install BatChmod on the Mac, it will also bring many of its supported files to the Mac, including application support files, preferences, caches etc.
All of the files on the Drobo have been copied from an old Xserve setup and various external drives and at least one other Mac's user folder. I've just set up a new mini running OS X Yosemite/Server 4, and am using a Drobo 5D for file storage.
