My fstab on the osx server is as follows:
192.168.9.99:/TST /Users/HMTS01/BACKUP cifs automated,username=TEST,password=TEST,uid=hmts01,gid=staff,file_mode=0700,dir_mode=0700 0 0
The windows share (TST on 192.168.9.99) is mounted correctly as the BACKUP folder in HMTS01's home folder, however the owner and permissions are wrong.
dr-xr-xr-x 2 root wheel 1 4 May 12:08 BACKUP
drwx------+ 3 hmts01 staff 102 4 May 09:20 Desktop
drwx------+ 5 hmts01 staff 170 4 May 09:27 Documents
drwx------+ 4 hmts01 staff 136 4 May 09:20 Downloads
drwx------+ 29 hmts01 staff 986 4 May 10:03 Library
drwx------+ 3 hmts01 staff 102 4 May 09:20 Movies
drwx------+ 3 hmts01 staff 102 4 May 09:20 Music
drwx------+ 4 hmts01 staff 136 4 May 09:20 Pictures
drwxrwxr-x+ 6 hmts01 staff 204 4 May 11:24 Public
drwxr-xr-x+ 6 hmts01 staff 204 4 May 09:20 Sites
The uid for the folder is root and not hmts01 as specified. Also, the directory doesn't give write access to anyone. I want only hmts01 (osx user) to have full access to the directory.
the parameters are
- windows share
- 192.168.9.99/TST
- username:test
- password:TEST
- osx mount point ~/BACKUP
- mount as hmts01 on osx with permissions 700
- automated at boot
Any help will be much appreciated.
It would be awesome if someone could help explain the formatting of the fstab line.
