I was able to create a file as sudo, sudo chown it to MyUser:MyUser, and move it into the MyUser owned dir, but I don't really see how that helps me here.. Still stuck.

Does anyone have anything...

Thanks, I'll try it.

I can't log in as MyUser because its a system user account dedicated to a program, thats the point.

So I have no options?

Oh ok, I see. But I do not want MyUser to be in the sudo group. The program that the MyUser is dedicated to gets write permission errors in the /mnt/nas/MyUser dir, that is why I am debugging this.
...

"test" is just the file I am trying to create. "MyUser" has rwx on all subdirs of the "MyUser" dir..

No you're right, it was just an excerpt. Here is the output you request:


drwxrwxr-- 6 MyUser MyUser 4096 Nov 28 21:58 /mnt/nas/Users/MyUser/

Hi all,

I cannot figure out this issue and I would really appreciate some help: I have created a user "MyUser" belonging to group "MyUser", and my problem is that MyUser gets permission denied...

I guess this is either not possible or not very common..

Hi all,

I find several guides on doing the opposite; booting an existing Windows partition under Ubuntu using VirtualBox, but I can't seem to find guides explaining how to do this the other way...
