Permissions for /mnt/recordings (SMB share)

Added by Stefan N. almost 8 years ago

Hi folks,

I finally managed to get TVH to work on my RPi3 with Raspbian Jessie after I installed the drivers for my USB DVB-S2 card. I also managed to map my Windows network share to /mnt/recordings. However, I can't do any recordings as the user TVH uses (I assume its hts) has no write permission in /mnt/recordings. The share is mounted via /etc/fstab during boot using:

//192.168.178.23/Aufnahmen /mnt/recordings cifs username=User,password=Password,x-systemd.automount,x-systemd.requires=network-online.target 0 0

Unfortunately, I do only have little Linux knowledge. Can anyone please tell me what I have to do that hts can write into /mnt/recordings?

Best regards

Stefan

chown hts:hts -R /mnt/recordings

I tried that and always got a

chown: changing ownership of ‘/mnt/recordings’: Permission denied

Even with a "sudo su" upfront I got the same error message :(

Ah, you're not setting the uid for the share, see: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1409720
