/mnt/user permissions?

Featured Replies

What are the correct permissions for /mnt/user? I've fixed my issue by setting a+x on '/mnt/user' but want to check what it's supposed to be.

 

I started being unable to connect to any smb shares; getting a "chdir_current_service: vfs_ChDir(/mnt/user/test) failed: Permission denied." error.

 

Docker and VM are shutdown. I rebooted multiple times and ran fix permissions and dockersafe fix permissions.

 

My user folder was:

drwx------  1    999 users 296 Jul 17 08:35 user/

 

Now changed to this and I can connect with SMB again.

drwx--x--x  1    999 users 296 Jul 17 08:35 user/

Correct permissions are:

 

drwxrwxrwx 1 nobody users  4 Jul  4 08:54 user/

 

You can fix them with

 

chmod 777 /mnt/user

Awesome, thanks.  I'm surprised they weren't fixed at reboot or by fix permissions... unless something else is messing with them. I'll have to reboot again and see if the fixed perms stay.

If they are not after a reboot then you have something changing them.
