When someone install the Plex Media Server (PMS) inside Synology DSM it automatically configure an account called 'plex'. What are the bare minimum access rights needed by this account to work properly? Does it need admin role or just user role? Can I set NA to all folders other then '/Plex' and '/media', the first one being the PMS install folder where all the files are stored and the second being the folder where I store all my media (series, movies, animes, etc)?
Perhaps I should just create a new role called 'Plex' and allocate the 'plex' account there setting all the rights/blocks needed, other than having this account inside user role? This would make sense as my user role allows R or R/W on a bunch of folders and Applications access that don't make sense for the 'plex' user.
On a last note, what does this 'plex' user do, what is it used for?
Thanks in advance!
