Hi all
Thanks for this. I switched to cifs and am still getting problems of
permission denied. 2 questions:
1) Once mounted, do I have anything to worry about with the permissions of
/mnt/abcd or anything beneath /mnt/abcd or is this all handled by mount?
2) Linux is connecting to this via cifs, whereas I have full rw via Windows
as the same user - so am I tight in thinking it can't be a user permissions
thing.
3) Another issue is I can create a file by copying i.e. the following works:
sudo cp /mnt/abcd/foo /mnt/abcd/bar
as does
sudo rm /mnt/abcd/foo
but
sudo uname -a > /mnt/abcd/xyz
fails with a permission denied.
Any ideas very welcome, I've been hacking away at this all day off and on.
Cheers
Rob

Happy New Year Rob!
You are probably better off using "-t cifs" (smbfs is old-style!), and
having "rw,uid=fred,gid=fred" in the options.

Hi all
Happy New Year - my first post for a while.
I'm having a bit of trouble setting permissions properly to mount a NAS
device as read write for a given user. It's a brand new QNAP TS-412 and
seems to be a little Linux box with a nice graphical UI. Surprise,
surprise, connect via Windows and I can move, read and write with no user or
permssions problems.
If I then do:
sudo mount -t smbfs //sharename /mnt/abcd -o user=fred
