Hello all,

I have just completed a first install of amahi, finished configuration as dhcp server, configured greyhole with a partition /var/hda/files/media with 700 GB where want to put all my media.

Now I want to start to move all the media from a laptop to the server, I mount on the client as root using mount.cifs '\\hda\Music' Music/ -o user=xpto,umask=777, on the server i created a xpto user with the same name i have on the laptop, the Music share is writable and for all users. On the laptop the Music directory in under /home/xpto/Music. Now on my laptop as xpto user i want to copy all media to the server but permissions dont allow it. At this time i cannot see what is still missing?

Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Miguel

Hello,

Its SOLVED, i had already looked and was according.
It was missing from the mount command uid and gid. so it should be mount -t cifs -o user=xpto,uid=xpto,gid=users \\hda\Music Music/
Thanks
