. I have a fedora samba server that works ok however I can't save to it except as root. The apple users can do whatever they need, save to it and create directories when they want. I have to run Thunar as root or use sftp to do those things from Fedora29, actually through a number of versions, don't remember when things changed. I don't use it often and have just lived with the problem.
I mount it on /mnt/box48 and the problem seems to be permissions:
[bobg@Box83 ~]$ ll /mnt/ drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 0 Mar 3 12:11 box48
I can't chmod it - [root@Box83 mnt]# chmod 777 /mnt/box48 It just ignores the command.
This is not critical, just annoying, but I would like to fix it. What do I have wrong, any suggestions appreciated.
Bob
