RIP Jan-Michael Vincent

Helicopters were so cool in the 80s.

+7 Libel involving images is a form of defamation where a false photograph, video, or image (like a meme or altered photo) is published, damaging a person’s reputation, subjecting them to ridicule, or falsely implying misconduct. Key elements include the publication of a false, identifiable image that causes actual harm.

You can configure samba to handle the permissions, but immich will need to connect to the user’s share using their password (no ideal)

In smb.conf for each user’s share

[user_media]
   path = /path/to/user/media
   valid users = username, immich
   force user = username  # This makes all files.  appear as owned by the user
   force group = media
   create mask = 0660
   directory mask = 0770

Alternatively you can use setguid with your media group:

chmod g+s /path/to/media/dirs
chown -R :media /path/to/media/dirs
chmod 2770 /path/to/media/dirs. (2 = SetGID, 770 = rwx for user and group)

• Any new file created by Immich will automatically belong to the media group
• The SetGID bit ensures files inherit the parent directory’s group
• All users (including Immich) can read/write files as long as they’re in the media group
• Individual users still “own” their files (UID stays as the original user when they upload via Samba)
