SAMBA write file using LabVIEW RT permissions error.

[KurtFriday]

Hi All

I'm having a issue writing a file to a network drive using SAMBA from a LabVIEW RT application running on an NI Industrial Controller

I installed and setup SAMBA via the following tutorial

https://forums.ni.com/ni/attachments/ni/7310/123/6/Samba_demo.zip

I can successfully create a mount to the network folder.

In LabVIEW RT I can list and read the files on the network folder.

In Putty I can run a Linux command on the IC to create a text file on the network drive.

However in LabVIEW RT running on the IC I cannot write or copy a file to the network drive, I get a file permission error.

Much appreciated
Kurt

what are the permissions set to on the files?

can ssh in and do an ls -al?

That would be useful.

Hey Sam

I got it working, the secret sauce is here

creating the local directory to write data to in /home/lvuser and then using uid=lvuser was what got it all working
