No thats not what i mean.
Linux/Debian where the QTS of QNap is made from, has a straight forward User/owner setup. QLogitechMediaServer runs in a chrooted debian file-system, and QTS is also debian. >From version beside the user squeezeboxserver, there also is a group squeezeboxserver. That group is important for plugins and LMS, so needed to work proper. What i mean, in the QNAP QTS you cab make a group like music, and make the user squeezeboxserver and the user(s) who manage the musicfile, both part of it. Then if those file have read/executed rights, squeezeboxserver can read and see them, but not write or deleted them In user rights when the user rights is 751, the 5 tells what user parted of the same group can do. Please look at the following link, which tries to explain who it works. User and group management is very important in linux, so also in QTS from QNap. And never ever just chance anything regarding rights or owners in QTS, just to get access but try to work with users and groups. For example if you run a ftp server on QTS, make a group FTP and make every on epart of that group who you want to uses the FTP https://www.thegeekdiary.com/understanding-basic-file-permissions-and-ownership-in-linux/ Owner/group and rights looks a bit strange a different in linux, but if you start reading and learn you understand why. And there will come a time, where you will wish MS software would work the same. dolodobendan wrote: > Are you sure these files had the same permissions / owners BEFORE you > copied them to your NAS? > > Digimaster suggested creating a group called Music and put > squeezeboxserver and my user in there.
