sector327 3 Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 Any ideas on a NAS config? I have my movies hosted on the Synology NAS, I'm using autofs to automount the directories and its working well (the part of automounting on access need) when I check the mount point from the server. BUT....the emby server program doesn't seem to have the right permissions. I'm wondering how to handle this as normally I would use the user permissions to handle if someone could touch things on the NAS but in this case, we're talking about a service. I'll paste the part of my log showing that its the permissions but I guess this isn't an "emby problem" but more of a "nas permission problem". (emby media server is running on a Fedora 28 box and accessing the library hosted on the Synology NAS.) I guess I'm hoping that someone else is doing the same and might see this.

sector327 3 Posted September 11, 2018 Author Share Posted September 11, 2018 (edited) ok. a solution (might be correct, might not but it works and my server is on a homelan behind a firewall) is to set the entire media folders (/media/synology/movies for example in my case) on the server to owner and group as emby. On the Nas itself, I set the advanced share permissions to rw for the user emby (& guest as well although I dont think the guest pertains here) Edited September 11, 2018 by sector327 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
