Rsync SSH : permission denied
Hi all,
I am trying to save files from my computer (running linux lite) to my ReadyNas 104.
I have created a public key (saved as ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub) that I have uploaded in the user settings on my NAS (Accounts->user->Settings->SSH->Import public Key).
The user account I configured has R/W access on the network drive. However, when I run the following command :
rsync -r -v -s --protect-args /home/frm/Music/aTagger/ /run/user/1000/gvfs/smb-share:server=flero.local,share=music/aTagger
I get a write error message for each of the file it is trying to write. Example below of such message for the file "Coups de vents.jpg" :
rsync: mkstemp "/run/user/1000/gvfs/smb-share:server=flero.local,share=music/aTagger/.Coups de vents.jpg.r2XXu2" failed: Permission denied (13)
If I try to move files the other way around (from the NAS to the computer), it works perfectly. I am therefore probably doing something wrong in the configuration of the write access to the NAS but I am not quite sure what.
Anyone has a clue as to which direction I should be looking into ?
Thanks a lot

Hi Mark,
Thanks for your answer. I was trying to copy files on a separate share and I solved the issue.
After investigation, I found out what I was doing wrong. My Network drive was mounted as anonymous...
I mounted it under my account (the one I created the authorized key) and it worked like a charm.
Cheers
