[FIXED] Can't move the content downloaded in /public

Hello!
The content downloaded through Transmission is created with the user and group "rd".
Code: Select all
rd:x:998:998:Daemons User:/:/bin/sh

Through SMB I can't move/edit these files, what can I do?

Hi

Indeed transmission settings are not fully right.

So stop transmission, open a shell window and do
Code: Select all
sed -rie 's/"umask":.*/"umask":0,/' /direct-usb/tr-daemon/settings.json
now all new downloaded files will have the right permissions

To restore permissions on the previous downloaded files, run the command (I assume you did not have changed the default location)
Code: Select all
chmod -R a+wX /direct-usb/tr-downloads
