I think you're pointing me in the right direction, but still missing something. Here's the output of mount | grep PI-PUBLIC
solomon@shlomo1:~$ mount | grep PI-PUBLIC //pi/PI-PUBLIC on /mnt/PI-PUBLIC type cifs (rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime,vers=default,cache=strict,username=solomon,domain=,uid=0,noforceuid,gid=0,noforcegid,addr=10.0.0.51,file_mode=0755,dir_mode=0755,soft,nounix,serverino,mapposix,rsize=1048576,wsize=1048576,echo_interval=60,actimeo=1,user) uid=0,noforceuid,gid=0,noforcegid seemed strange, so I added my actual uid and gid to /etc/fstab. So instead of: //pi/PI-PUBLIC /mnt/PI-PUBLIC cifs user,credentials=/etc/samba/auth.pi.solomon 0 0 I now have: //pi/PI-PUBLIC /mnt/PI-PUBLIC cifs user,uid=500,gid=500,credentials=/etc/samba/auth.pi.solomon 0 0 The result: Both of the following incorrectly show all files as owned by solomon smb://solomon@pi/PI-PUBLIC/ /mnt/PI-PUBLIC/ Before the change, /mnt/PI-PUBLIC/ showed all files owned by root. But fish://pi/media/PUBLIC/ still shows correct ownership On Fri, 24 Aug 2018 12:21:18 +0300 shimi <linux...@shimi.net> wrote: > Maybe the Dolphin mount (via kio-smb I guess?) runs the mount command > with parameters like uid=$USER,gid=$USER ? > > Have you compared the options of the two mounts when they're both > mounted with "mount | grep PI-PUBLIC" ? > > On Fri, Aug 24, 2018 at 9:56 AM, Shlomo Solomon > <shlomo.solo...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > Answering my own post with a solution, but I don't know WHY this > > works. > > > > I discovered that if I access fish://pi/media/PUBLIC/ in Dolphin > > the file ownerships are shown correctly. > > > > Can anyone tell me why this works when the following 2 don't? > > > > > If I access /mnt/PI-PUBLIC in Dolphin, all the files "seem" to be > > > owned by root. > > > If I access smb://solomon@pi/PI-PUBLIC/ then all the files > > > "seem" to be owned by solomon. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > On Fri, 17 Aug 2018 10:58:06 +0300 > > Shlomo Solomon <shl...@the-solomons.net> wrote: > > > > > Since moving from Mageia5 to Kubuntu 18.04 I have an annoying > > > problem. > > > > > > I have a Raspberry PI file server running Samba and sharing > > > PI-PUBLIC.
