Stronginthearm Report post Posted Sunday at 11:57 AM I want to sync a folder which has the owner:group root:system and the permissions drwxrwxr-x (775). I've edited /lib/systemd/system/resilio-sync.service to run sync as user:group rslsync:system. I've edited /etc/passwd so tha the user rslsync has the group system. I've made a systemctl daemon-reload and a systemctl restart resilio-sync. Sync runs but won't write to the folder and says it has no permission. When I login as user rslsync I can obviously write to the folder because I have sufficient group permissions. Only when I change the owner of the folder to rslsync Sync can write to that folder. Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS and Resilio Sync 2.6.3 installed with apt. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stronginthearm Report post Posted Sunday at 02:01 PM Update on further research: Changing the permissions to 777 has no effect. After changing the owner to rslsync and accessing the folder with Sync I can change the owner back to root and Sync can still access the folder. So probably Sync has some kind of internal database where it stores assumed permissions? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
