FreeNAS help!!

Ok, so I've got a bit of a problem.

I got it all setup and its running fine via LAN, i've got all the shares setup as network drives and everything is fine. EXCEPT...

I set it up an FTP on the box for a friend to upload a few things to me every once in awhile and...for some reason, when he uploads anything to me and I try to access it, I get 'Access Denied'. So I can't open ANY files that're uploaded from anyone.

Any ideas???
 
Check the file/folder permissions?

Does your account have permission to execute/read/write?

I'm new to FreeNAS/Linux, haha.

I have the user setup in the 'admin' group which I assumed would give full access. He can't d/l and u/l with no issues. Problem is if he u/l's something to me...'I' can't access it. I can execute this command and it works fine...chmod -R 777 /mnt/<sharename>

but apparently it gets reset after however long. Something about everything being owned by 'root'?? I'm not too sure.
 
Just wanted to post that it can be closed up. For anyone out there having issues where someone uploads to via FTP to FreeNAS and you can't open it on your side (Access Denied)...here's the solution I've found.

On Services|FTP

* Create mask(file) - set value to 111 and the logic is: 777 - 111 = 666 (final file mask) you don't need (1) execute.
* Directory mask - set value to 000 and the logic is: 777 - 000 = 777 (final directory mask).
