I recently moved my Plex server from Windows Server to Centos 6. Everything transferred fine and is running smoothly after some initial hiccups. My media has always been on a ZFS on Linux file share, initiially through samba, but now locally on the host (I bought a new server that is capable to be my file host and run Plex at the same time). The problem I am having is that the media library files are owned by an AD user and have group permissions tied to an AD group. To allow Plex to be able to see the files, I am having to give world read and execute permissions to the files and directories.
I'd like to be able to let plex run as an AD user if possible but I'm not really sure how. Is there a config file that tells it what user to run as? If so, can I tell it to run as user@realm?
Thanks for the help!
