Is the NTFS drive mounted manually, and if so with what options? I just tried with a drive automounted using NTFS-3G and the backup executed without errors. Nonetheless, a backup shouldn't halt if only the chmod failed - I've added a try-except-pass to the next version so if it fails, a warning is issued but nothing more. Its mounted using /etc/fstab with: UUID=uuid /mountpoint ntfs defaults,umask=0002,gid=500 0 0 this is from 'mount' command: type fuseblk (rw,allow_other,default_permissions,blksize=512) I expect it is using ntfs-3g, but to be honest, I do not know how to find out exactly. Thanks for your reply and solution. It looks like you're using the kernel-based ntfs driver in that case - it's no solution to be bug, if you'd like for it to be mounted in userspace (as in each user can automount the drive on login), just remove that from the fstab and reboot. NTFS-3G doesn't seem to fail on a chmod, even though the chmod will do nothing because NTFS doesn't support unix style permissions. Ok, thanks once again, Hopefully I will try that some day, but for now I will rahter stay with how it is, because it just works and thats exactly what I need from my system. :-) Thanks for your advice though.
