Mount external hard drive with r/w permissions for minidlna
The problem is your partition is mounted via fuse. That's not the same as mounting a filesystem native.
Use that command:
sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /home/pi/dd -o uid=1000,gid=1000
That should set the partition's user and group to pi

I trying to mount my external hard drive (NTFS) on my raspberry pi in /home/pi/dd
But I would like to have r/w access to all files on this HD because I want to use one of its subfolders with minidlna: example on /etc/minidlna.conf:
media_dir= /home/pi/dd/a_folder
Actually chown and chmod doesn't work after the mount...
Example of what I did:
pi@raspberrypi - ~ sudo cat /etc/passwd pi:x:1000:1000:,,,:/home/pi:/bin/bash minidlna:x:107:110:MiniDLNA server,,,:/var/lib/minidlna:/usr/sbin/nologin pi@raspberrypi - ~ sudo cat /etc/fstab proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 /dev/mmcblk0p5 /boot vfat defaults 0 2 /dev/mmcblk0p6 / ext4 defaults,noatime 0 1 UUID=0A1C40D81C40C105 /home/pi/dd ntfs-3g uid=1000,gid=1000 0 2 pi@raspberrypi - ~ ll total 12K drwxr-xr-x 2 pi pi 4,0K janv. 30 10:18 backup_files drwxr-xr-x 2 pi pi 4,0K janv. 30 10:17 dd drwxr-xr-x 2 pi pi 4,0K déc. 24 12:34 Desktop pi@raspberrypi - ~ sudo mount /dev/sda1 pi@raspberrypi - ~ ll total 24K drwxr-xr-x 2 pi pi 4,0K janv. 30 10:18 backup_files drwxrwx--- 1 root 1004 16K janv. 30 07:43 dd drwxr-xr-x 2 pi pi 4,0K déc. 24 12:34 Desktop
We can see the line:
drwxrwx--- 1 root 1004 16K janv. 30 07:43 dd
This (I think) cause the fail of minidlna start:
pi@raspberrypi - ~ sudo service minidlna force-reload [....] Restarting DLNA/UPnP-AV media server: minidlna[2015/01/30 10:57:31] minidlna.c:474: error: Media directory "/home/pi/dd/Downloads/Music" not accessible! [Permission denied] [2015/01/30 10:57:31] minidlna.c:474: error: Media directory "/home/pi/dd/Downloads/Films" not accessible! [Permission denied] . ok
And when I chmod or chown dd folder, nothing change the folder owner/rights don't change...
I think that I don't understand really well mount options...
Thank you for your help
EDIT: Here is the result of "sudo cat /proc/mounts"
pi@raspberrypi - ~ sudo cat /proc/mounts rootfs / rootfs rw 0 0 /dev/root / ext4 rw,noatime,data=ordered 0 0 devtmpfs /dev devtmpfs rw,relatime,size=219744k,nr_inodes=54936,mode=755 0 0 tmpfs /run tmpfs rw,nosuid,noexec,relatime,size=44784k,mode=755 0 0 tmpfs /run/lock tmpfs rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime,size=5120k 0 0 proc /proc proc rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime 0 0 sysfs /sys sysfs rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime 0 0 tmpfs /run/shm tmpfs rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime,size=89560k 0 0 devpts /dev/pts devpts rw,nosuid,noexec,relatime,gid=5,mode=620,ptmxmode=000 0 0 /dev/mmcblk0p5 /boot vfat rw,relatime,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=437,iocharset=ascii,shortname=mixed,errors=remount-ro 0 0 /dev/sda1 /home/pi/dd fuseblk rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,user_id=0,group_id=0,default_permissions,allow_other,blksize=4096 0 0
EDIT 2: I forgot to say that I share this folder /home/pi/dd with samba, here is the configuration file:

chaos over 9 yearsCan you post the output of
sudo cat /proc/mounts
while the partition is mounted? -
Hilo over 9 yearsYes, I just added it to my post ;)

Hilo over 9 yearsThat works perfectly :) (If I replace sda5 by sda1 :p) But how can I do to do that with the fstab file ?
