As for the command line: copying and deleting works with the usual cp/rm commands and also with the gio tool (gio copy/gio remove). However, it doesn't work with nautilus. The nautilus UI simply doesn't let me place the icon of the desired file into the root window. It "flies" back to where it came from. Thus, it behaves exactly as you would expect from a read-only file system. BTW: copying _from_ the root system with nautilus also works correctly. And, again, once I go into one of my folders - everything works as usual. For now I decided to mount my share with CIFS - which also works as desired.

I can do all of this operations by using shell commands (touch, cp, mkdir...) in a terminal window. Also, nautilus can perform these actions if I start it with root privileges. Even stranger is the following: even though nautilus cannot write into the mounted shares it is able to write into its subfolders. This bug seems to affect others as well: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1000973/nautilus-cannot-write-into-1st-directory-of-a-nfs-share Ubuntu version: 18.04.1 LTS - amd64 Nautilus version: 1:3.26.4-0~ubuntu18.04.1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1800043/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
