>> What do you know: I experimented a bit with directory depths and all of a sudden I get the security tab. Me happy. For a very short while that is, because now I cannot open the DC anymore when I want to manage it. I now get "The program cannot open the required dialog box because no locations can be found."

Hi,

 
the experimenting was part of the troubleshooting. A folder  in the root level was working fine, so instead of /data/smb/data, I tried /data. That worked, but using /data/smb/data (though probably unrelated) again worked from that point on.

 
We use absolute paths, relative does not make sense to us, because, relative to "what"?

The EXT4 volume is mounted to a folder in the root level. 

 
cheers,

 
BC
