As root

chmod -R o+rwx basefoldername/

Should achieve what you want (if I understood correctly)

Hello all,

I am still wrestling with file permissions.

I have a QNAP NAS (running Linux of some flavour).  It is accessed by
Windows and Linux machines

We currently have a folder off its root called photos.

In windows we access it with a mapped drive to \\192.168.0.9\public\photos

In Linux I can access it via smb://192.168.0.9/public/photos.  All no
problem and permissions are all OK.  (In Linux nautilus says that the
"Permissions cannot be determined")

I have tried to mount it thus:

# sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.0.9/public/ /mnt/qnap

I have also tried:

# sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.0.9/public/ /mnt/qnap -o uid=nobody


It mounts OK, but the permissions are too restrictive.  I really want
everyone, whether in Windows or Linux to be able to read and write
interchangeably, and irrespective of where the original was created! In
other open to everyone al the time!

Can anyone help please?

Thanks



Ed
