restoring deleted shares

[karlitschek]

The scenario is this:

• Someone shares a folder with a group in an enterprise.
• Someone deletes the shared folder.
• The owner restores the deleted shared folder
• The folder is then no longer shared for the rest of the group.

@msrex Is this a correct description?

@schiesbn What do you think?

[schiessle]

It's basically the same I described here #8559. The trash bin doesn't store share information.

Duplicate?

[msrex]

I think this is the correct description.

We are looking at a slightly different use case that I cannot test here
in the airplane without internet:
If memory serves me correctly if you share a directory (say "test") with
a group and give that group "delete" permissions, a person in that
group can then delete /Shared/test which will also delete the share,
instead of just deleting every file inside of "test".

I will verify in the next few days.

So it might not be a duplicate of #8559

[schiessle]

Yes, that's correct. If you share a directory with delete permissions then the recipient can delete any file in the directory or the complete directory.

Closing as partial duplicate of #8559 for the "restoring delete" part.

As for @msrex 's comment about deleting shares, the behavior has been changed in OC 7 to be "unshare from self" instead of deleting, which I believe fixes the mentioned issue.
