Ubuntu: Error: no write permissions on dvr directory

[HHN]

I'm having trouble setting up my DVR storage to a share on my Synology NAS.

I have successfully mounted the share. But when I try to select it as my DVR drive, I get this error: Error: no write permissions on dvr directory

The Channels log shows:
2021/09/10 21:13:45.180224 [ERR] Failed to read directory /boot/efi: open /boot/efi: permission denied

I am running Ubuntu on ESXi.
The username/password I set works fine for accessing the share. I'm not sure what that log means.

Has anyone come across this?

Thanks in advance!

Check out the uid and gid options in your /etc/fstab, and make sure they align with how Channels is accessing the mount. (See mount.cifs(8).)

(Or, if you are mounting via some other protocol, like NFS, ensure your user mapping is properly configured.)

I don't use it for channels, but I have an NFS mount on my rpi of a share on my synology.
The easiest way to do it without setting up the same uids on the NAS is to squash map all users to admin on the synology:

Well... It started working the next day. Not sure what the issue was but I appreciate the information from you both.
