OSX - File Sharing - Permission problems I bought a Mac Mini (OSX High Sierra), also with the intention to use it as a file server.
I am very surprised that this seems to be an issue.

I am using Samba share that is also supposed to work for Windows.

I created 2 users on the Mac Mini --> User1 and User2.

When I now share a folder "User1-share" from the User1 account and give rw permissions to both users for this share, then these permissions do not seem to be inherited. 
This means that if I create a file or folder in the shared folder via network with User2 from another mac, then User1 does not have permissions to write to this file. 

This seems to have never really worked based on this article the problem exists since 2012?

Permissions for new files in shared directory

Is this a common problem and can't be solved. I hoped that maybe someone came around this already and knows the solution?

I am sure there is more info required to track down the issue and I am happy to provide it.

Thanks in advance for any help,

Chris
Buscar, thanks a lot and you were right with the ACL issue.
I would like to "vote up" your answer, but I can't do that if it's just a comment? At least I didn't figure out how.

In any case: I would recommend to look into this explanation and way forward:
https://gist.github.com/nelstrom/4988643

What needs to be done is this:
In OSX High Sierra:


Create a Share, e.g. /Users/admin/share. 
Create a Group, e.g. "sharegroup", and share /Users/admin/share to that groupo and give read&amp;write permissions.
Add users to the group, that are supposed to have access to the folder  
run the following command from the github link above: 

chmod -R +a "group:sharegroup allow list,add_file,search,add_subdirectory,delete_child,readattr,writeattr,readextattr,writeextattr,readsecurity,file_inherit,directory_inherit" /Users/admin/share


And after this small command, I could use the mac Mini as a "normal" file server. Several users could access the shared folder(s).

I did not (have to) run the other command that was stated in the github link:  

 chown -R demo:sharegroup /Users/admin/share


I wasn't sure what it does.

If someone else should read this post and should (same as I) have an issue in understanding what ACL's are and what this setting change means, I personally found this forum thread helpful (but take care since the "chmod command" is faulty, when being copied and pasted):
