Probably a dumb question. I am having trouble getting my rsync script to work because it cannot access /media/jjj/Synology2. The script is:
-rwxrwxr-x 1 jjj jjj 450 Feb 20 15:08 Rsync_script2.sh Which has the same settings as the original script, which works fine. These are the permissions and ownership of the folder: drwxr-xr-x 3052 jjj jjj 200704 Feb 16 17:35 Synology d--------- 3 jjj jjj 4096 Feb 19 18:14 Synology2 So I did 'sudo su' to #, then 'chmod 777 /media/jjj/Synology2' and then it appeared as: drwxrwxrwx 3 jjj jjj 4096 Feb 19 18:14 Synology2 But after I switched back to jjj the permissions went back to d---------. So I repeated the command as jjj with sudo, and the permissions went back to full permissions, so I thought I had solved the problem. Five minutes later I ran the script, and got the same error message about cd in the script, so I did a ls again and the permissions had all been removed, even without any action from me. I tried one more time, and this time I included the full path in the command, but got the same results. There are three other folders in /media/jjj, and their permissions haven't changed for years. What is going on? Why do permissions change all by themselves? _______________________________________________ PLUG: https://pdxlinux.org PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
