I’ll look into that, thanks!

We just had a total power outage, and restarting my main machine I remembered I have Linux Mint installed as duel boot. I’ve been waiting for a final push to get me to migrate away from Windows. Would it be easier to do all this from Linux Mint instead of Windows?


No GUI on my end (It’s been fun learning to use a headless server). I have to sudo to be able to do anything in the mount locations. Using ls -s, the permissions and owner aren’t changing after using chown and chmod.


Yup, the mount is authenticated and the Share Permissions on Windows have it set to Full Control for Everyone, plus ‘Password protected sharing’ is turned off under Advanced Network Settings.


Incorrect permissions on my .arr stack
Hello fellow self-hosters, I'm fairly new to hosting my own services and have been learning as I go, but have run into an issue and am not sure where to look for answers. Hoping you all can help a confused soul out. Up until now, I've been running the .arr services (Sonarr, Radarr, Overseerr, etc.) on my Windows machine with minimal issue, but I've been working on setting up a separate Debian machine to get it off my main PC. I'm following [this guide](https://github.com/Rick45/quick-arr-Stack) to get everything setup, and at this point I have all my services setup and running, but I can't seem to get Radarr and Sonarr to work correctly. My indexers work, Radarr will grab the wanted file and Deluge will download it, but when the download finishes it just stays in limbo; Radarr is unable to import it into the library due to invalid permissions (It doesn't have Write permissions). I've done `sudo chown -R $USER:$USER /path/to/ROOT/directory` and `sudo chown -R $USER:$USER /path/to/HDDSTORAGE/directory` as the guide instructs under 'Folder Structure' (of course replacing the paths with my actual paths), but to no avail. Where I *think* the problem is is my actual Media Library. All the services are running on their own laptop, but my 10TB HDD is still in my main Windows PC. Until I build a new rig specifically for the server, I can't put the HDD into the laptop. In Windows, the TV and Movie folders are network shared and I have them mounted on my server in the respective locations where Radarr and Sonarr should be looking. At this point, the .arr services can definitely read the mounted directories, but can't make new ones for new shows and movies.

You said you recently got a gigabit plan, but that’s related to your home download speed. Check to see what your upload speed actually is. Depending on your ISP’s plans, you might have a speedy download but a slow upload.


There’s an option to change the download size. 2GB is the smallest, 50GB I believe is the biggest. Downloaded my Google Photos to import into Immich yesterday, I opted for 10GB files and had 17 zip files to download.
