Summary0001732: Allow users to reset permissions
DescriptionTraditional flexshares can have problems when administrators copy in data to a flexshare with external protocols such as SSH. Additionally, some workstations do not respect the permission structure and override the group permissions making files in accessible to users.

Add a button to reset permissions on a flexshare. This will effectively perform the following two commands where **flexshare** is the flexshare name, and **groupowner** is the group specified in the UI:

chgrp -R **groupowner** /var/flexshare/shares/**flexshare**
chmod -R g+rw /var/flexshare/shares/**flexshare**

A warning can be given to remind the user that this will override any other group permissions in the folder structure.

The Community Edition has a daily cronjob to fix bad permissions - it runs the following script: /usr/clearos/apps/flexshare/deploy/set-file-permissions

This feature is disabled in the Professional Edition since it can be an unwanted outcome in a business/enterprise environment. We can certainly make it a configuration option with the added ability of running it via webconfig.
