I obtained a VPS and they attached a 16TB HDD... They gave me a guide to mount the HDD to folder /hdd.
My issue is that the program I am installing on a sudo user has a lot of small apps that get installed to /home/user. The small apps also have several other users that need to be created as time goes by and they all need access to this /hdd mount. Also, any of the small apps & users only see the main SSD storage and not the /hdd mount. I need to use the the 16TB HDD for everything though, so it needs to be seen.
I was able to chown the /hdd with the sudo user, but I don't know how to make it accessible to all users. Can this be done with making my own group and chown the /hdd that way? What about the files and folders after /hdd though, the permissions will be changed if anything is edited right?
I edited the title of this to mention /home. I was thinking that maybe if I could mount the HDD to /home instead of /hdd it would fix all my problems. If I did that, would it be as easy as mounting to /hdd?
However, if I do find a way to mount as /home or replace current /home. Would I still get permission issues?
If someone has any solution, I would appreciate it. Even if it's not the one I thought of.
