Hey guys,
I was trying to delete some torrents that I had downloaded with transmission-daemon and was unable to from my samba share on windows. I figured the best solution was to 'sudo chmod -R 0777 /media/Storage' (my drive with samba) but apparently not.
This locked both my windows user and my user on my ubuntu server out of the drive completely with a message saying 'ls: cannot access /media/Storage: Permission denied'.
I am able to login as root with 'sudo bash' and make changes however I am uncertain as to how to make my drive accessible again.
Doing a 'ls -ld' on the directory shows 'drwsrwsrwx 39 root root 4096 Nov 17 21:20 /media/Storage'
Any ideas?
