Files copied over USB do not show up
« on: July 13, 2012, 09:18:20 PM »

I have just set up a DNS-320 with a single 1TB HDD. Copying 500 GB data over wireless to the NAS would take a while, so I copied the files over USB after connecting the HDD in an enclosure to a linux machine. When I placed the HDD back in DNS-320, I can see the HDD is half full in the web interface. But when I connect the device from Windows to list folders, I don't see the files copied over the USB. Only the files that I copied when the HDD was in DNS are visible. Can anyone suggest a resolution?

It is a Problem of the ownerchip.

If you have funplug installed, you can set the ownerchip via ssh:

Code: [Select]
chown -R youreuser  /mnt/HD/HD_a2/yourefolder
chgrp -R youregroup /mnt/HD/HD_a2/yourefolder
chmod -R 777      /mnt/HD/HD_a2/yourefolder

change youreuser and youregroup to user and group.
and the /mnt/HD/HD_a2/yourefolder you must set also.

For a short test, you can open the webui and rightclick on an invisible folder.
Than select properties then mark all checkboxes. (read write execute)

but this is not recursive, but now you should see this folder via windows.(F5)

Maybe you "chmod 777" this on youre linux machine.

Or install funplug, its cool.

Thanks for the suggestions. I solved the problem using the following, also changed the user and group ownership to make it the same as other visible files.

Maybe you "chmod 777" this on youre linux machine.
