I am having problems creating an OpenVZ container.
tar cannot change ownership to uid 0,gid 0 because of permission denied.
The installation directory is a cifs mounted locally via fstab.
If I log in to the server as root via ssh I am able to create files and folders, move them, rename them and delete them from the mounted cifs but I am unable to chown any file or folder in the cifs as I get a 'permission denied' message.
Please note that the original folder sits on a NAS and has been setup for public access. Permissions are 777 and I tied to mount the share in many different ways, setting uid and gid, umask, as a guest and using user credentials. I have no problem reading or writing the share, I just have problems changing ownership to files and directories.
I am sure it is something simple that I am missing... could someone please enlighten me on what could it be that I am missing?
