Regards Le 14/06/2015 16:48, Min Wai Chan a écrit : Dear All, Sorry to post it here as I don't see any better to post this question I've.... I've have a samba 4 files server (Member server of a AD DC) And also a synology diskstation. The AD DC is a Samba 4 AD DC and it have RFC2307 enable and configured. I would like to sync 2 folder so that they can have the same files contents and also controls. But the synology diskstation don't read the RFC2307 uid and gid, when I ssh to the diskstation, it was using a different uid and gid. so I think that 
 the only
way to fix this is to smb mount... But which users I should mount it so that it and how I should sync it so that all the access control is correct? Any suggestion are welcome. Regards, Min Wai
