I can't execute some files on my CIFS share.
This is the default behaviour of OMV. To change it please see this thread especially posting #8:No execution of EXE-files
Typically shares are mounted with noexec. This is to ensure that files cannot execute. This is for safety purposes.
If you need to run files, install them first. Put them in a folder that doesn't have noexec set. Perhaps ~/bin, /usr/local/bin or /opt/bin. And make sure the folder is in the path and that the file has x set. Then you can run the file.
This is part of why you rarely need anti-virus software on Linux boxes.
If you want to run a script, you can do that by running (for instance) bash with the script as a parameter.
There are two parts to this. The drive that holds the file you wish to execute must be mounted with exec capability and the file you wish to execute must have its executable bit set for the applicable user/group/others.
Why?
No. It is not possible. By default Linux files are not executable. You have to make them executable. You have to do stuff to the file, the filesystem and the user account. Sorry.
And it is a verrry Bad™ thing to do by default indiscriminately to all files in a whole shared filesystem. In my opinion.
And OMV by design make it extra special difficult to do to files in shared folders. So you probably shouldn't do it.1
When I want to install software, I don't want to locally copy it to execute it. I want to execute it directly remotly.
I can understand this request. In the past I had this request too.
Is it possible without modify on each file +x or on the root share +x ?
To change the executable bit is really not necessary. I tried it recently by adding acl allow execute always = yes to the SMB / CIFS -> settings - advanced settings -> extra options field. I didn´t modify the specific share settings.
After saving the change I was able to execute .exe-Files on the Samba share. I tried it from a Windows 7 client.
The executable bit of that file was not set.
