I just recently bought a 250GB network hard drive, and have it connected to my home network's switch, with four shared directories created on it.
However, when I mount the shares (I'm wanting to do this so they auto mount at boot time), they are owned by root and nogroup, and are only writable by root, with rwxr-xr-x as their permissions, and not even root can change those permissions. how do I set them up so they mount as rwxrwxr-x? Here is what their fstab entries look like: //CALYPSO/Documents /Calypso/Documents smbfs auto,rw,users,umask=0077,gid=nogroup,password= 0 0 //CALYPSO/Multimedia /Calypso/Multimedia smbfs auto,rw,users,umask=0077,gid=nogroup,password= 0 0 //CALYPSO/share /Calypso/share smbfs auto,rw,users,umask=0077,gid=nogroup,password= 0 0 //CALYPSO/Systems /Calypso/Systems smbfs auto,rw,users,umask=0077,gid=nogroup,password= 0 0 The mount points themselves show the proper permissions when the shares are unmounted, but once they are mounted, the permissions change. How can I fix this so that I, as a regular user, can write to them? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
