When editing share permissions the 'sub-window' which displays group permissions below the radio control for "public or controlled access" needs a complete redesign.
1] It's impossibly difficult to handle when there are lots of groups and where the group names as inherited from AD/LDAP are lengthy. On my test system I have more than 60 groups, some names are so long that the column holding the group mnames is wider than the window presented for editing purposes; which means that for each and every one of these groups I have to scroll left to right and back again to reset the relevant permissions. This scrolling window within the page does not resize at all, and occupies only about 50% of the width of the screen territory on my 1200/1024 monitor and significantly less than that on my 1600/1200 monitor; this is seriously ineficient use of screen territory. Like the selections for Account Groups and Account Users mentioned in a previous message, one should have the option to display all records rather than displaying in a vertical scroll-box, and width should be dynamic so as to fit all the content into the window without the need for L/R scrolling. One should also be able to multi-select operations. The bottom line is that one should be able to see understand all groups and permissions at a glance. 2] System time problems With system time synchronised to pool.ntp.org, and timezone set to Etc/GMT0 but with UTC option unticked, the system absolutely refuses point blank to display or set the correct time in the "Set system clock manually" pane - setting the time 1 hour ahead of real time. Any files saved to the published shares are timestamped with the wrong time.
