Hi guys,
I switched my Volume_1 drive and lost the fun_plug files in the process. I saved my files though but that's where I have the problem.
I don't have R/W rights and get the message that I need to have Unix User\999 rights.
I have tried to install fun_plug again on Volume_1 but nothing happens and I figure this might have to do with rights on the file.
Anyone have any thoughts or ideas how I can solve this without deleting my files?
I have a DNS-323 with 1.08 firmware and I read that only firmware 1.06 can change permission via ftp. I don't want to loose data, is it safe to downgrade and keep data?
Thanks in advance!
Edit: I now tried to run a test fun_plug in the root of Volume_2 and there it did something. So it seems as if I may have switched bays when installing the drives. Is there any problems with this or do I need to switch back? Will this affect the data on the drives?

I managed to install fun_plug, mc and transmission, everything works as it should
I still get error messages regarding permission to different folders with the Unix User\999 error message. How can solve this ?

Use can use the "chown" command to change ownership of files and directories and use the "chown" command to set permissions. Just google the commands as there is a lot of info out there.

If you'd like to change file owners on a large scale you can use the following command:
cd /mnt/HD_a2
find -user bad-user-name -exec chown nobody:nobody {} \;What this will do is find all the files that belong to the bad-user-name and change their ownership.
Replace bad-user-name with the user name that's giving you problems.
Replace nobody:nobody with the username:group you'd like to change it to. Read about chown as FunF!ler suggested.
Now, before you go and do something like that on the entire drive, try it on a small folder containing a bunch of both files and folders that's giving you problems.

Sorry for the late reply and thanks for the help. Works like a charm now.
