mnt/snc

//10.xx.xx.xxxx/abc -- is a windows ntfs share
It is shared with all 3 permisson to everybody


After the same -- i want to run some shell scripts

tar: goqtx11: Cannot change ownership to uid 65534, gid 65533: Operation not permitted .
tar: libqutil.so: Cannot create symlink to `libqutil.so.1.0.0': Operation not permitted

I am root and still can't change ..

It looks like end of the road to me ..

Put on your thinking caps .....Can somebody help me

Hi,

I never use samba for that matter, but your first error suggest that there is some user whose id is 65534 ... but my general prepective is that its very rare to have a user with that ID , in general user id remain in range of 32K at max.
So please check that if some user exist with that user Id
Seems user doesn't exists on your PC and thats why it create error...

hope that help

Huh? You're trying to set permissions on a file you're accessing over a network? Not gonna happen sport, for starters neither FAT32 or NTFS use a permission system anything like linux filesystems and secondly, seeing as how you're accessing them over SMB it is unrelated to the filesystem used and the SMB protocol uses a very limited permission system from memory.
