I seem to have my permissions set up properly on the Readynas, but when something gets downloaded with Sabnzbd on the readynas it seems to set the permissions so that only admin can access the files. So I have to either access a share as admin or run the process on frontview that makes all files in the share accessible to guest users. Can anyone shed some light on this problem?
Thanks
What's probably happening is that SAB is running as root, and so when it writes to the file system, those files are owned by root.
I guess there are two ways of going about this:
a. change how you have SAB set up so it runs as whatever user the readynas chown's the files/directories to when it runs that script from FrontView.
or
b. run a chmod/chown as a post processing script in SAB.
I'm not a coder, just a doer, but perhaps a coder would be so kind as to illuminate us with the brass tacks on what needs to change.
Anyone?
I appreciate the reply. It was actually right in front of my face all along. There is an input in SABnzbd+ for users running on linux systems to set the file permissions on downloads automatically. It was setting them all as root and I have changed this so that everyone can read/write/open the files right away. Thanks for responding, much appreciated.
