How to give permission to user after mounting a hard disk on Centos 7?
Best would be to add some mount options for the vfat
filesystem like umask
or uid/gid
.
The uid
mount option gives a specific user the access on the mountpoint.
mount -o uid=user,gid=group /dev/vdd /mnt
Adding umask=0
would give write access to anyone.
mount -o uid=user,gid=group,umask=0 /dev/vdd /mnt

I have a HP Microserver gen 8 that i'm using as a NAS at my home, with Centos 7.
And i just got a new hard disk 2 TB, after i installed it in the bay, and rebooted the system.
I've used
fdisk
to make the partition, and after that i used:mkfs -t vfat /dev/sda1
to create fat32.after i mounted :
mount /dev/sda1 /nas
i can access it with root user and create folders .. etc, but when i access it (from SSH not samba) with my user (which is samba user also) i can only read, i can't create folders, files ... etc.
result of
fdisk -l
:Disk /dev/sda: 2000.4 GB, 2000398934016 bytes, 3907029168 sectors Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 4096 bytes Disk label type: dos Disk identifier: 0x3833350a Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 2048 3907029167 1953513560 83 Linux
result of
ls -ld /nas
:drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 32K Nov 5 16:42 /nas
What can i do, so my user can have permissions on this mounted /nas ?
