I would like to make a fileserver at home using Raspberry Pi 2. Currently there are 3 users: root, pi and alma. My connected external drive is mounted automatically to /media/pi/TOURO I would like to share “Share” directory on this drive for “alma” users (with read+write permissions)
The problem is that when I try to change owner of the “Share” dir nothing happens:
pi@raspberrypi /media/pi/TOURO $ ls -l drwx------ 1 pi pi 0 Nov 6 16:40 Share pi@raspberrypi /media/pi/TOURO $ sudo chown -R alma:alma Share pi@raspberrypi /media/pi/TOURO $ ls -l drwx------ 1 pi pi 0 Nov 6 16:40 Share
If I try to change permissions of the directory the same happens:
pi@raspberrypi /media/pi/TOURO $ sudo chmod 777 Share pi@raspberrypi /media/pi/TOURO $ ls -l drwx------ 1 pi pi 0 Nov 6 16:40 Share
Has anyone faced with this issue?

Problem solved after “permissions” option was added in fstab. Like this line:
UUID=741E3B271E3AE232 /media/TOURO ntfs-3g auto,users,permissions 0 0
After this I can chown my files and directories on external drive.
