Cross OS permissions

Featured Replies

Posted

Just copied a bunch of files from one drive to another in my unraid server through OSX. Now I can't access the files from any other computer except the one I did the xfer on. Keeps saying I need permission to access the file. Does OSX add its own permission settings when xferring files from within the server? Thanks

I moved everything to my my server via an old MacBook Pro and I can read/write with my new MacBook Pro without a problem.

chmod -R 777 /mnt/diskx where x is disk number FTW.

That's one way. 777 is a kind of evil though unless you're in Vegas.

 

There might be a better way. What do you mean "copied...one drive to another...through OSX"? SMB? AFP? Terminal?

Used finder to move files on server in osx through smb. Didn't use terminal to move.
