good morning gang,
While trying to get Sickbeard and Sabnzbd working last night I completely mucked up directory permissions on my data mount point. Is there a default set of permissions for a folder/mount point? If so, is there a way to set it back to default?
I'm not sure how to get them back, but as of now, the only user that can traverse the folder structure is my currently logged in user.

Pretty sure you should be able to fix this yourself; have a look at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fi … Attributes for some guidance. Hint; the default depends on your umask

Thanx, I'll take a look. I've never messed with umask before, so not sure what I'm doing. Can I get the umask from another mount point and apply it this the messed up one?

No; the umask is a global setting; read the page. You'll want to have a look at chmod, you could read the wiki-page and assemble the options yourself; or look at `man chmod` and have a look at it's reference parameter

Thanx for the help.
After reading the umask and chmod wiki, I reset the mount point with 755 permissions, which seemed to work, with the exception of my download folder. When I am in Sickbeard I go to set up a new recurring download, and when it comes time to specify the directory, I can navigate my entire mount point/folder structure however, when I click on my download folder to go into it, Sickbeard just sits there with the thermometer spinning.
Any ideas what could cause this?
I'm still working on it as well.

Not a Sysadmin issue, moving to NC...

sorry about that, I figured permission issues could be sysadmin related.

Is it because you haven't granted writing permissions? Isn't 5 just read + execute?
Well, it also depends on the owner and group as well as who you want to do what. For example, which user is running your program? That'll help you decide which permissions you need to set.

After much trial and error, I noticed that the download directory was the only directory to have a + sign next to the privs when I did a ls -l. I removed the extended ACL's and then reset the privs, and viola, works like a charm.
Thanx for your help.
