Greetings Forum: At first, thank you to all working on btsync Linux projects and forum posts. I am migrating from a Win environment (dedicated only to running btsync) to the most recent version of Debian. As a new Debian user I have benefited and learned greatly from the very accurate and detailed posts from tuxpoldo, etc. in this forum - excellent work - thank you for sharing your knowledge. After installation of btsync-gui, I 'Open BitTorrent Sync...' from the applet on the desktop, click "Add", choose my directory, enter the secret, and continue to receive the following error: BitTorrent Sync Don't have permissions to write to the selected folder." The directory I am choosing is mounted via /etc/fstab hosted by my QNAP NAS. I know I have read/write access to the directory as root, as I can gedit a new file/edit-save in the same directory as root and verified the changes from another Win machine on the network. However, when I gedit as my user "martin" I get a similar error message from gedit: "You do not have the permissions necessary to save the file." So I realize permissions are not set correctly for me to take ownership of the directory via my user login "martin" Would anybody be so kind as to guide me in correcting this issue? I appreciate your patience. Martin
