I have a Kubuntu server that for some reason I can't write to my storage drives while logged in. Here's my fstab:

CODE
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <file system> <mount point>   <type>  <options>       <dump>  <pass>
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
# /dev/hda1
UUID=825f5093-d527-4dc7-8da2-0f4e60212898 / ext3 nouser,defaults,errors=remount-ro,atime,auto,rw,dev,exec,suid 0 1
# /dev/hda5
UUID=a84677a7-55d8-4373-8590-a8f40cde18f0 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/hdc /media/cdrom0 auto user,atime,noauto,rw,dev,exec,suid 0 0
/dev/fd0 /media/floppy0 auto user,atime,noauto,rw,dev,exec,suid 0 0
/dev/sda1 /media/storage1 auto user,exec,rw 0 0
/dev/sdb1 /media/storage1b auto user,exec,rw 0 0

# /dev/hdc /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,atime,noauto,rw,dev,exec,suid 0 0


Everything I've found on Google has told me that I have the entries for /dev/sda1 and /dev/sdb1 all set correctly, but for some reason I still can't write to them.

I'm kinda wishing I had stuck with Fedora 7, but if this can also work I'll stay with Kubuntu. Permissions with Fedora were much easier.

Hey....solved my own problem :-)

I just had to run this code:
CODE
scythe@gfunk:/media$ sudo chown -hR scythe storage1
scythe@gfunk:/media$ sudo chown -hR scythe storage1b


Oddly enough I found this out while trying to find out why I couldn't get write access through Samba...but whatever it works now.
