FTP/Samba access to NTFS drive is read-only
Posted: Fri Oct 05, 2012 9:47 am
Not sure it's the right forum, but since I have a UE40D6500, I post it in the D forum.
My TV has been rooted, and I have FTP and Samba access to the drives.
I have partitioned a 2TB HDD in two partitions. The first partition is formatted in XFS and I use if for my recordings. It works fine.
The second partition is formatted in NTFS, and used to store mainly 3D video files created from BDs. It works fine too, but I can't use my FTP connection to write to that partition. It seems that the NTFS partition can be mounted only in read-only mode. I would like to be able to use FTP to transfer files from my PC directly to the NTFS partition via FTP (or Samba share).
Is it possible to mount the NTFS partition in read and write mode? How?
Sorry if it's a noob question. I'm not a Linux king, and I've only tried to edit the fstab file, but the USB drive is not present in that file (probably because it is auto-mounted when it is connected). I would appreciate any help.
