I am getting an error message every time I enter a command into the terminal window.

how can I change permissions? thank you!

$ iscsictl add target iqn.2000-01.com.synology:sciarrino1515.photos,192.168.1.49 iscsictl: Permission denied

It sounds like you may have an installation issue. Have you disabled system protection? (both for installation but also for ongoing use).

Can you also post the output of the three commands:

ls -l /usr/local/libexec

ls -l /usr/local/bin/iscsictl

ioreg | grep iSCSI

csrutil is disabled and I am still getting a permission denied error

I'm not sure what you mean when you say disabled system protection for ongoing use

Do you think that installing a new beta would solve this problem?

I noticed in the wiki that you say " Ensure that no iSCSI targets are connected when updating or removing the initiator software, or you may experience an error during installation." but I get 'permission denied' messages when I try to modify anything

broncobenshea commented 7 years ago

SOLUTION i deleted the permissions file using 'sudo rm /Library/Preferences/com.github.iscsi-osx.iSCSIInitiator.plist' that you recommended to another user. > uninstalled software > shutdown > reinstalled software > shutdown

no longer receiving the permission denied error
