RESOLVED: Can't move/del files/folders Transmission dl dir

I've been trying to figure this out for a while now, but I give up (I really messed up some settings last night and spent all today bringing Amahi back to life)... time to ask for help!

So, I use Transmission to download, and I have it set to download into one of my gh shares "TheLair\Unsorted". All devices can access and read files, sans problemo. However, when I'm using my Win7HP machine to manage/sort that directory, I cannot move or delete any files. I know it's a permission issue, but I have not been able to find a way to fix it. The error message displayed is:

Code: Select all

You need permission to perform this action You require permission from Unix User/transmission to make changes to this file
I've tried adding the user I use to login to the "transmission" group, didn't work. I think I've had success manually changing the individual directory permissions, but that's a pain and too time consuming.

Help!

I found it! Right in the wiki... Scroll down to "Changing the file permissions..."
