I am attempting to do a backup from my unRAID device to my FreeNAS device.  I have a Mac with both volumes mounted.  The unRAID device is using AFP and so is the FreeNAS device.

 

I do the following:

 

cp /Volumes/<mountpoint of unRAID>/filename.txt /Volumes/<mountpoint of FreeNAS>/

 

I am doing this as root (I have tried with just the regular user too) and it is giving me a permission denied.

 

I have looked around for solutions to this and tried the following as root on the unRAID box:

 

find /mnt -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \;; find /mnt -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;

 

The file that I am attempting to copy is in fact set as 644 permission.

 

I let that run to it's entirety and I am still getting the permission denied error.  I hate running down permissions issues but if I am going to do a backup, I need to figure this one out.  Any advice?

 

 

I should also mention my version:

 

5.0-rc11

Looking at the unRAID server, I found the following and am wondering if the user "e" could be the cause of the issue?

 

root@media0:/boot/config# cat share.cfg

# Generated settings:

shareUser="e"

shareUserInclude=""

shareSMBEnabled="yes"

shareNFSEnabled="yes"

shareCacheEnabled="yes"

Here is the cfg file for the movies directory I am attempting to copy from:

root@media0:/boot/config/shares# cat movies.cfg

# Generated settings:

root@media0:/boot/config/shares#

I figured out the issue.  The issue was on the destination FreeNAS device.  No write permissions.  Took me 2 hours and after about giving up I found it.  I hate permissions issues.
