UID and PGID #16

Closed Robindeko closed 1 year ago

Robindeko commented 1 year ago

I would like to run this container on my Synology NAS. Unfortunately, it is not possible to change the UID and PGID's for users on a Synology. Would it be possible to set a correct UID and PGID using environment variables?

Thanks in advance!

Hi, sure that can be implemented. But it should also be possible to change the IDs on a Synology, as you can open a ssh shell on those NAS Systems.

Thanks for your response. Yes you can open an SSH session on the NAS, but there is no usermod command. Furthermore, you can change the passwd file manually, but this gives issues in the GUI of the NAS. The concencus on the internet seems to be, that you need to set the correct UIDs and PGIDs using ENV settings.

chown 5000:5000 /your/sbfspot/dir doesn't work?

Robindeko commented 1 year ago

Wow, guess I learned something new today. I assumed a user would need to exist with UID 5000, but the command works :) (I had to add a -R to make it recursive)

Seems to be working now (will need to check once it's not dark here) Thanks a lot!

No problem, I wanted the container user not to be present in the host system so he has minimum file permissions.
