Mpd needs 777 access permissions to the library, if it hasn't it doesn't work properly. Since mpd is out way before you started feeling unsecure, take it or leave it.

Ok, thx ... I leave it.

Mpd needs your share has 777 access... So full write and read permissions, for users and groups...

Why ??? Horrible .... everybody are able to delete or doing other bad things. Not the GNU/Linux Way. Surprised
Do the devs plan to change it ?

On my smb-server has raspify's mpd nothing to write, only root has such permissions .

No one an idea, maybe a developer or supporter ?

Generate or update database for NAS mounts not possible !
I get the failure in mpd.log, I write in my first posting.

command mout shows all ok:
//ipaddresssambaserver/musik on /mnt/NAS/sambashare type cifs (rw,relatime,vers=1.0,sec=ntlm,cache=strict,unc=\\ipaddresssambaserver\musik,username=user,uid=0,noforceuid,gid=0,noforcegid,addr=ipaddresssambaserver,unix,posixpaths,serverino,acl,rsize=2048,wsize=2048,actimeo=1)

If I want to update the Database I get a failure in mpd.log:
Sep 15 18:47 : update: Failed to open directory /var/lib/mpd/music/NAS/sambashare: Permission denied
... but looking in Terminal with cd and ls was possible !

The User on my Samba-Server I connected with, has no write permissions. But when I use a User with write permissions, the failure is the same.
