Because of this you own it to user nzbget and the group dietpi, (dietpi user is also part of the group dietpi) so both users (nzbget and dietpi) can use it.
sudo chown /mnt/c2464ab4-6613-435f-98ba-79bec89379de/dietpi_userdata/nzbget

And if you gave 755 to it, everybody can read from that directory.

Not when I search my network with my W11$ laptop and connect via wsdd
browse to the nzbget folder and want to drop a nzbget file into the ‘monitoring’ folder
these are not writable then

root@DietPi:~# sudo chown /mnt/c2464ab4-6613-435f-98ba-79bec89379de/dietpi_userdata/nzbget
chown: missing operand after ‘/mnt/c2464ab4-6613-435f-98ba-79bec89379de/dietpi_userdata/nzbget’
Try 'chown --help' for more information.
root@DietPi:~#

you used an incorrect command. Corrected above now.

chown nzbget:dietpi -R /mnt/c2464ab4-6613-435f-98ba-79bec89379de/dietpi_userdata/nzbget
chmod 775 -R /mnt/c2464ab4-6613-435f-98ba-79bec89379de/dietpi_userdata/nzbget

@hemertje

this doesn’t make sense in my opinion as an end-user
you want the ‘nzbget’ folder available in your network

You can’t expect that we foresee every use case a user might gonna do. Sometimes manual adjustments might be needed.

Btw: folder /mnt/dietpi_userdata/nzbget is the directory where nzbget executables are located. Why do you like to store stuff inside? OK doesn’t matter. Usually people like to access download folder /mnt/dietpi_userdata/downloads/complete and not the run directory.

Hi @Joulinar

I thought I saw the ‘nzbget’ folder was the ‘NZBdir’ ?
