Seconded on Cockpit project w File Sharing.
Probably not best practice, but it’s possible to install it on the PVE host itself since its ZFS manager and Identity manager plugins and other features fills some gaps in what Proxmox doesn’t do (or would have to drop to CLI to do).
Also recommend RClone in a systemd can take care of various file movements, syncs and backup tasks you may need against the host, vdumps or SMB file shares.

To add to this, here is a tutorial with video that goes into the permissions. One of the cockpit modules has had an update, so make sure you bump the version number.

I replaced a TrueNAS install with this and haven’t been happier. It was such a bloated resource hog for what an LXC and a podman/dockge install can do.
