Can't Copy Files To Ready Share

Csection

Senior Member
I have a usb stick attached to an r7800. I have tried to copy files to it through Network Neighborhood, but I keep getting an access denied from this.
It is formatted ext3.

Any help appreciated!

I suppose you are using my firmware. So it is usual situation with permissions. Samba (ReadySHARE) is executed with "admin" uuid, but your usb stick has "root" user owner ("admin" != "root"). You should for example create directory in your stick and set 777 permissions for it (enable full access for all). From console (telnet or ssh):

cd /mnt/sda1
mkdir MyDirectory
chmod -R 777 MyDirectory

After this you can write to MyDirectory.

Voxel.
