Follow the previous set of instructions to set the owner of the CIFS share
to either a domain admin user account or the Domain Admins group.

After the owner is set, unmap the network drive.
4
Remap the network drive using an account that is a part of the domain
administrators user group that ownership was set to previously. Follow
Microsoft best practices and assign ACL permissions to users and
groups accordingly.
If the NAS service is not joined to an Active Directory domain, the built-in
CIFS administrator account Administrator must be used to set any ACLs. To
define SLPs, use MMC.
NOTE: Do not attempt to create a CIFS share using Microsoft Management
Console (MMC).
