That does sound, then, as if a simpler filesystem would suffice, and require less management. All the permissions complications are unnecessary under your circumstances, assuming you trust each other. Security (safety) is best provided by backups. Cheers, David.
Re: Impossible to give "write" permission on a sub folder
Hello David, really thank you for your reply. I'll try to explain my needs and all info that I can have in order to answer your questions the best way I can: First I will explain my goal: I have always been a Windows user, but for a while I've been thinking in changing to Linux. Last month I decided to do the change, but as we are 2 people at home (me and my wife), I've decided to do a dual boot while I can do all settings and familiarize myself with Debian, while she will still be using Windows (she is not a tech woman, she only wants something that works easily). So I want to be able to access and modify documents on the folders on Debian and Windows, as me and my wife have documents in common on these folders. As I stated before, the computer has 2 physical drives, one SSD with the 2 OSs and a HDD with all the data files (documents, pictures, ...) This drive is meant to be shared between all users, and the folders are there only for organisational purposes. For example: - HDD Documents User1 User2 Public Images User1 User2 Public As I said, the permissions on the subfolder are herited from the parent ones: User1, User2 and Public folder's permissions are herited from Documents or Images. Here is a PowerShell "Get-ACL" output from the 2 user's documents folders: > > PS C:\Windows\system32> cd D:\Documents\User2\ > PS D:\Documents\User2> Get-Acl | Format-Table -Wrap > > Répertoire : D:\Documents > > Path Owner Access > - -- > User2 PC-01\Admin AUTORITE NT\Système Allow FullControl > BUILTIN\Administrateurs Allow FullControl > PC-01\Admin Allow FullControl > PC-01\user1 Allow FullControl > PC-01\user2 Allow FullControl > Tout le monde Allow Write, ReadAndExecute, Synchronize > > PS D:\Documents\User2> cd ..\User1\ > PS D:\Documents\User1> Get-Acl | Format-Table -Wrap > > Répertoire : D:\Documents > > Path Owner Access > - -- > User1 PC-01\Admin AUTORITE NT\Système Allow FullControl > BUILTIN\Administrateurs Allow FullControl > PC-01\Admin Allow FullControl > PC-01\user1 Allow FullControl > PC-01\user2 Allow FullControl > Tout le monde Allow Write, ReadAndExecute, Synchronize > > PS D:\Documents\User1> If I suppose that these settings are the same, I think I could suppose that after a mount, both of these folders would have the same permission settings on Debian, but thats not the case. I also disable fast boot and hibernation on the Windows side: - I first went to power button settings and disabled the fast boot - then I went to PowerShell and did powercfg -h off - at last, I checked the group policies settings to be sure that hibernation was forced on the system As for the tests I did with some new folders: - first I created a "linuxTestFolder" on Debian - "sudo mkdir /mnt/windows/Documents/linuxTestFolder": - this folder was created with "rwxrwxrwx" permissions and I have full access on Debian. - I can also use this folder on Windows, and it's permissions are "Everybody full control" - I can create and edit files on both OSs - second I created a "windowsTestFolder" on Windows, with the same inherit permissions as User1 and User2 - "Add new folder" button on Windows explorer: - after the mount on Debian, this folder have "rwxrwxrwx" permissions and I have full access - I can also use this folder on Windows - I can create and edit files on both OSs This permission history is really puzzeling me... Maybe there are other Windows settings that I can't see with get-acl ?

I wrote: You probably need to become very familiar with man ntfs-3g particularly with: "On computers which can be dual-booted into Windows or Linux, Windows has to be fully shut down before booting into Linux" and: Regardless of what's shown here, have you written to the filesystem from linux at all?

Next is working your way through "Access Handling and Security" and then appreciating that "umask=value Set[s] the bitmask of the file and directory permissions /that are not present/. … The default value is 0 which means full access to everybody." (My emphasis.) In view of your reported struggles to understand above, I would think carefully about what exectly you are trying to communicate between windows and linux. . Are you actually relying on permissions because User 1,2,3 are different people whose data needs protecting, or are they different facets of yourself (personal, work, financial, etc.) . Do the files require preservation of windows metadata. (Eg, if you were sharing "C:\WINDOWS", one wouldn't want to interfere with metadata that the OS relies upon.) Then I would decide on whether your shared filesystem would really be better served by being simple, like exFAT (DC's choice, I've no experience) or FAT32. > I did some tests, and I think that I I can't find a way to do it this week I > will end by recreate this folders.

Re: Impossible to give "write" permission on a sub folder
Thansk for the answer. To be honest to you, I already checked all that. Both
User1 and User2 folders have have exactly the same permission sets on Windows
(they both herit them from the Documents folder). I did also tried to use the
usermap file, but I must say that I didn't managed to do it. I didn't found the
Windows zip file to download from the NTFS-3G website and the Linux one I
didn't managed to understand once I launch it. I did some tests, and I think
that I I can't find a way to do it this week I will end by recreate this
folders. In my tests it worked well :( Best regards, Marc Le 2021-11-27 19:39,

Re: Impossible to give "write" permission on a sub folder
Read the ntfs-3 man page.
Take a look at the man page for ntfs-3g, the section on
Access Handling and Security:
From the ntfs-3g man page:
Access Handling and Security
By default, files and directories are owned by the effective
user and group of the mounting process, and ev‐
erybody has full read, write, execution and directory browsing
permissions. You can also assign permissions
to a single user by using the uid and/or the gid options
together with the umask, or fmask and dmask options.
Doing so, Windows users have full access to the files created by
ntfs-3g.
But, by setting the permissions option, you can benefit from the
full ownership and permissions features as
defined by POSIX. Moreover, by defining a Windows-to-Linux
user mapping, the ownerships and permissions are
even applied to Windows users and conversely.
If ntfs-3g is set setuid-root then non-root users will be also
able to mount volumes.
You use the defaults option when mounting. I do not know how that
affects access and security for ntfs-3g. I would suggest either using
uid and gid options when mounting instead, or using the
usermapping file that maps Windows users to Debian users.
You need to check which user under Windows owns those folders, which Windows
users have write access to those folders, etc.
As mentioned in the man page, there is a way to map Windows users to
Debian 11 users using the default .NTFS-3G/UserMapping file or a
custom usermapping file with the usermapping mount option.
I used this feature a long time ago, and the format for the usermapping
file is documented in the ntfs-3g man page.
As is said at the beginning of this reply, read the ntfs-3g man page!
HTH,
Chuck

My problem is that in some sub folders, I'm not getting the write ("w")
permission. For example on the "Documents" one:
$ ls -l /mnt/windows/Documents/
total 117
drwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16384 24 nov. 15:59 User1
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 26 nov. 2020 Default.rdp
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 432 11 mars 2021 desktop.ini
dr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 40960 24 nov. 15:59 User2
drwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16384 24 nov. 16:00 Public
drwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4096 24 nov. 15:59 User3
dr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 20480 21 nov. 12:05 Scan
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18432 4 déc. 2016 Thumbs.db
drwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 16 nov. 23:13 'Unified Remote'
Most of the folders are OK, but I ave User2 and San that doesn't have
the write ("w") permission...
Do you have any idea on whats going on?
Thanks in advance for all the help,

Please configure your e-mail client to compose and send messages in
"plain text" format, not HTML.
The Windows disk/ partition/ volume/ filesystem stack and the Linux
stack are fundamentally different. When using one filesystem with both
operating systems, features and interoperability are opposites. A
simple filesystem, such as FAT, has minimum features and maximum
interoperability. A complex file system, such as NTFS, has maximum
features and minimum interoperability.
If you want to know the reasons behind the interoperability effects that
you are seeing with NTFS under Linux, then I suggest that you study
Windows drive/ partition/ volume/ filesystem technical documents, the
corresponding Linux technical documents, and the Linux ntfs-3g driver.
If you want a disk/ partition/ volume/ filesystem that "just works" with
both Windows and Linux, then I suggest that you backup your data, zero
the HDD, use Windows to partition the HDD, use Windows to format the
partition using the exFAT filesystem, and restore your data. This
should give you a filesystem that all users and processes can access
under both Windows and Linux. If you want to limit access to all or
part of the disk, then one solution is to create multiple partitions and
filesystems, and mount each as required.

By removing all the newlines (or replacing them with spaces). Most likely the way they did *that* was by writing their email in a web browser, running a web-based MUA of particularly low quality, which then produces a plain-text part with all the newlines clobbered. Presumably there is also an HTML part which is actually comprehensible to humans. I didn't check, but it's a fair assumption. Otherwise, who the *hell* would use this particular MUA?

lists.deb...@netc.eu - how do you manage to produce something as
completely undecipherable as what is is above? Please up your game.
