[SOLVED] LXC Container Shared Directory Permissions

[manjotsc]

I added a directory to a lxc container to be shared, how to I grant permission to LXC Container's user from Proxmox.

Shared Directory: mp0: /mnt/4TB/Plex,mp=/mnt/Plex

Thanks,

you need to modify the file permissions or change the file owner. with a default unprivileged container, chown 100000:100000 -R /mnt/4TB/Plex would set the owner of the files to uid/gid 100000, which is root user in the container (root uid = 0 in container, 100000 outside the container)
