Thanks for the guide. I’m on the first steps here so I’m still struggling on this setup. By default it seems that my network share uses the nobody:group ownership. And since I pointed to the UID and GID from my users sonarr can’t write on the folder. In my tests I changed the folder permission to myuser:users but them I can’t write on the smb share. Gonna dig a bit more into this.
