Is the Synology device formatted NTFS? &nbsp;They usually come as some other format. &nbsp; If you are trying to extend the user folder to that device, then it needs to be NTFS to support it.

I have a synology device hosting my home folders for my users. &nbsp;I also have a girl who creates users for me. &nbsp;She can create the users in AD, but when she plugs in the path for the home folder, she gets a perms denied.<br />
<br />
the top level home folder is named USERDATA. &nbsp;Under that, AD creates a child folder using the \\serverpath\userdata\%use<wbr />rname% and that's where she gets the error.<br />
<br />
What permissions do I need to apply to the top level folder USERDATA so that she can create the user's home folder?<br />
<br />
Thanks<br />
