General :: Automatically Set Write Permissions On Mounting A Usb Drive?

Aug 15, 2010

When I mount an external usb drive on linux (CentOs4), the permissions are by default set to read-only. Since there are multiple users on the computer who need to use the external drive, I want everybody to have rw permission for the entire drive. I also want them to be able to mount the drive if the computer has accidentially been shut down. They can use sudo mount to mount the drive, but this will only give them read permission, and I obviously don't want to allow sudo chmod.

Is there a default setting that I can change so that every new external usb disk automatically gets rw permissions?

Ubuntu :: External Hard Drive - Error "read / Write Permissions" On The Folder Properties

Dec 16, 2010

i borrowed an external hard drive from my friend to back up a load of stuff on my windows partition before reinstalling it. I am doing this through ubuntu. I am trying to zip up folders like My Documents etc and chuck them on the external hard drive but it always comes up with errors to do with read/write permissions. In the permissions tab on the folder properties of the ext hard drive it says I am owner but i have no file access (only folder access is create and delete files). When i try to give myself read/write permission it just goes straight back to nothing when i look at it again.

Ubuntu :: Allow Write Permissions To The /var/www Folder?

May 31, 2011

There are lots of tutorials and opinions on file permissions and web hosting.
So lets say I wanted to allow write permissions to the /var/www folder.

which would be best practice?

Chown -R user... allow a specific user to have write capabailities.

use gksudo nautilus (unsure what this does)

or open the folder to all parties.

If anyone has any opinions on file permissions in general or web hosting security then feel free to throw them at me.

Ubuntu :: User Doesnt Have Write Permissions To Floppy?

Jan 7, 2010

so i have a limited user (my dad) on Jaunty who has no write access to his floppy disks. Nautilus gives a permission denied error, and i discovered that root owns the floppy drive, thus allowing his read-only. (that write tab on the floppy in on btw). However, when i login as a admin, nautilus says that user has write access. ??? I check the user's user privliges and everything exept "administer the system" is checked. I can copy files on it by logging in as root.

Not lloking for a direct answer but if there is anyone else that has issues copying specific types of files to a Samba NTFS partition.

Ubuntu :: Mount CDROM With Read / Write Permissions?

Mar 19, 2010

I am running Karmic x64 on a HP laptop that has a cd/dvd burner. I have a r/w cd with files on it and I wish to add/remove files to it. After it mounts automatically on insertion, I unmount it and remount with:
sudo mount /dev/sr0 -t iso9660 -w /media/cdrom
(I tried assorted other hare-brained things also) but it always says that the filesystem is read only. Do I need to use a different device than sr0? Is it even possible under Ubuntu?

Ubuntu Installation :: No Write Permissions On The Install Directory?

I'm pretty new to Linux but I know my way around. I've gotten Google Earth downloaded and am trying to install it. Everything is fine until I try to install it into /usr/local (or somewhere in there). The Google Earth Setup keeps telling me that I do not have write permissions on this directory. Question: How do I change the write permissions for this folder? Or should I install the program somewhere else?

Ubuntu :: Edit File Permissions - Read / Write Access

May 6, 2010

I have apache2 running on my computer. I want to change the permissions for /var/www/ so that I can edit the files without a problem. Right now I can use the gksudo command, but I'd like to be able to have all the files available when using an IDE like eclipse.
I've read in several places that
Code:
chmod 755 /var/www
will do, but if I'm not mistaken that would give read/write access to anyone. I'm not in a production environment, so I'm not too worried about security, but I'd like to give anyone else as less permissions as possible. Would this be possible?

Ubuntu :: SSHFS Setup On Desktop To Mount HDD (Write Permissions)

Oct 17, 2010

I'm trying to set up sshfs on a desktop/fileserver so that I can mount its HDD's I use for storage on my laptops. My issue seems to be getting permission to write to the mounted drives. I just keep getting permission denied. here is what I think are some relevant tidbits.
mount point on server,

Code:
joe@joe-desktop:~$ ls -ld ~/sda2
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 16384 1969-12-31 19:00 /home/joe/sda2

HDD I'm trying to mount
Code:
joe@joe-desktop:~$ ls -ld /dev/sda2
brwxrwxrwx 1 joe disk 8, 2 2010-10-17 15:22 /dev/sda2

Mount point on client
Code:
joe@joe-laptop:~$ ls -ld ~/sda2
drwxrwxrwx 2 joe joe 4096 2010-10-17 19:58 /home/joe/sda2

This is the command I'm trying to use to mount
Code:
sshfs joe@192.168.1.103:/home/joe/sda2 ~/sda2

I can chmod the mount on the server to 777 but as soon as I mount the HDD to the server all write permission just goes *poof* and its back to "drwxr-xr-x".Chown seems either, it just wont stick.

Ubuntu :: Advanced - IT Groups Can Read / Write Files But Others Have No Permissions

Jan 28, 2011

I have a file server running 10.04. I have a user that belongs to 2 groups (users is the primary and IT is the secondary). I have permissions set up so that this user and other users that belong to the IT groups can read/write files and others have no permissions whatsoever. I have also set the umask to 0007 so that any files created have the effective permissions. My concern is this: since my primary group is users, is it possible for me to create files with the owner group IT for only this specific folder?

Ubuntu Networking :: Grant Write Permissions For Samba Shares

Aug 27, 2011

I have a Natty headless server that I would like to set up shared directories and grant specific users write permissions. I use a Windows 2008 R2 machine with Active Directory for authentication and have created a group GroupWithWriteAccess which I want to have write access to the shared directory. I want all other users to have read only access. I have edited my smb.conf file with the following

Code:
[TV]
path = /media/share/Media/TV
writeable = yes
write list = primaryuser @GroupWithWriteAccess
create mode = 0660
directory mode = 0770

The machine is fully setup to work with Windows authentication and I can access shares from the ubuntu machine, it's just sharing local directories with the correct permissions that I can't work out. So far I can access the files from my other machine, but I do not have write access even though I am logged on as a user who is a member of GroupWithWriteAccess.

we have a data transfer network drive, shared via nfs and samba.But now I got the special demand to make any of the files read and wirteable, regardsless of the permissions they had before.With acl I get the right permissions (via default values) but the standard unix permissions overwrite this. e.g. when I have 644, it does not care that the group has write permissions)Does someone have an idea (except chmod via cronjob )

Ubuntu :: Install 10.04 - Sound Broken Brasero - Won't Write CDs Anymore - Permissions?

Jul 17, 2010

I'm having some real troubles with my install of Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. It was a fresh install just after 10.04 was released, so it's not been installed long. Just recently lots of things have stopped working I can't sudo (sudo: must be setuid root) Trying to su root tells me I got the password wrong, even though I know it's right Sound has broken Brasero won't write CDs anymore Plugging in a pendrive gives some permissions mounting error Clicking 'shut down' just logs out. The machine won't shut down at all. I'm guessing this might all be related to permissions/users? I really don't want to have to reinstall again!

Red Hat / Fedora :: Cant Write To Raid - The Permissions Of - Driveid - Could Not Be Determined

Mar 19, 2010

I just did a fresh install of Fedora 11 and added Raid 1 for two additional drives during the install,

So, I have 3 drives. One with the OS, that I boot from. /dev/sdc

Then 2 others in a Raid 1 config, /dev/sda and /dev/sdb -- those are in /dev/md0

Everything with the system is fine. I can boot up, and everything runs great. So then I try to view the Raid and it looks ok when I open 'Computer'. it shows the main OS drive, and what looks like the 2000GB raid drive. So i open it and just see a 'lost+found' folder. Not surprising, b/c I haven't added anything to it. But when I right-click I can't create a folder b/c it's greyed out, I can't drop files in there, and when I get Properties on the drive itself it says 'The permissions of {driveid} could not be determined.'

So when I add a user into "group1" they automatically have read & write access to all files & directories which is in "group1".

Oh & I use crunchbang 10 (statler) for my desktops & Ubuntu 11.04 for my NFS/print/SSH/etc/etc server

General :: Mounting Ext2 Partition With Write Permissions?

Oct 25, 2009

I need to mount my ext2 partition with write permissions for an average user. Right now, I can only write to the volume using sudo or the root account.

/etc/fstab:

Code:

# Filesystem: Mountpoint: Type: Options: Dump: FSCK:
/dev/sda1 / ext4 defaults 1 1
/dev/sda5 swap swap defaults 0 0

[code]....

can't add the options uid=500,gid=500 to the ext2 volume because it says "bad option" I have 1 question. If you have a volume listed in /etc/fstab, and you try to mount it with different options than the ones listed in fstab, will it mount with the new options, or the fstab options?(e.x. if I try to mount /dev/sda6 with: mount-o auto,user,exec,rw,async. Will it mount with async or sync?)
