Hi All,
Google is killing me here!
Scientific Linux 7.2, 64 bit
$ rpm -qa samba
samba-4.2.3-11.el7_2.x86_64
Is there some trick to mounting an NTFS USB flash drive and
sharing it with Samba?
I am trying to share an NTFS flash drive with samba.
If the drive is not mounted, I can do what I want
from Windows 7 and XP on the mount point. I have
full access.
But, when I mount the stick to the mount point and
try to browse the mount with W7 or XP, I get "permission
denied". Specifically, from the W7 machines samba log:
../source3/smbd/uid.c:384(change_to_user)
Skipping user change - already user
../source3/smbd/open.c:881(open_file)
Error opening file . (NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED)
(local_flags=0) (flags=0)
I mount suchlike:
# mount -t ntfs -rw -o
users,exec,sync,uid=todd,gid=users,fmask=000,dmask=000 /dev/sdc1 /mnt/iso
(I know I don't need the masks, but I left them there in case
they were needed)
After mounting:
# ls -al /mnt/iso
total 1193
drwxrwxrwx. 1 todd users 4096 Mar 3 23:30 .
drwxr-xr-x. 13 todd users 4096 Mar 3 21:47 ..
-rwxrwxrwx. 1 todd users 122 Apr 12 2011 autorun.inf
drwxrwxrwx. 1 todd users 4096 Apr 12 2011 boot
-rwxrwxrwx. 1 todd users 383786 Apr 12 2011 bootmgr
-rwxrwxrwx. 1 todd users 669568 Apr 12 2011 bootmgr.efi
drwxrwxrwx. 1 todd users 0 Apr 12 2011 efi
-rwxrwxrwx. 1 todd users 106768 Apr 12 2011 setup.exe
drwxrwxrwx. 1 todd users 40960 Apr 12 2011 sources
drwxrwxrwx. 1 todd users 0 Apr 12 2011 support
drwxrwxrwx. 1 todd users 0 Apr 12 2011 upgrade
My smb.conf:
[iso]
comment = mnt on rn1 -- Mount as M:
path = /mnt/iso
valid users = @users
write list = @users
force group = users
force user = todd
oplocks = no
level2 oplocks = no
strict locking = no
blocking locks = no
force create mode = 0000
create mode = 0777
force directory mode = 0000
directory mode = 0777
map system = yes
map hidden = yes
writable = yes
Trying simpler:
[iso]
comment = mnt on rn1 -- Mount as M:
path = /mnt/iso
force group = users
force user = todd
Doesn't work either
What am I doing wrong?
Many thanks,
