The group that the app belongs to should have write privileges on the directory that contains the share. Create a group in /etc/group that contains the user that the app runs as. Then change the ownership and permissions on the directory that contains the share: chown root.groupname /path/to/share chmod 775 /path/to/share chmod g+s /path/to/share Tony - -- Anthony E.
