ProFTPD NTFS Permission Problem

  • hello there,

    so i am running LibreELEC 8.2.2 on an Intel Core i5 Lenovo Laptop i have and i have installed ProFTPD addon. i have a 2TB NTFS hard disk connected to the USB of the Lenovo, i can create folders using Samba, however, if i try to create a folder using ftp client (Libreelec ProFTPD being the server), folders cannot be created, Permission Denied.

    is there a way around this?

    thanks,

  • could you create folders at /storage/... ?

    thanks for the reply, short answer: Yes.

    long answer:

    I have two users,


    one for /media , that has two drives, both are NTFS volumes, both get permission denied if ftp client tries to create a Directory:

    Code
    [15:38:42] [R] MKD test
    [15:38:42] [R] 550 test: Operation not permitted

    the other user is for /storage , for which creating a Directory works fine

    Code
    [15:40:04] [R] MKD test
    [15:40:04] [R] 257 "/downloads/test" - Directory successfully created
    [15:40:04] [R] PWD
    [15:40:04] [R] 257 "/downloads" is the current directory
