Networked hard drive shared via OS X File Sharing mounted as read-only, but need write permissions as well
Hi!
I have an external hard drive that I am attempting to use as networked storage by sharing it using OS X File sharing on one Mac (I'll call this Mac 1, running Mojave 10.14.5), and then mounting the hard drive over the network to another Mac (I'll call this Mac 2, running Mojave 10.14). I want to have write access to this hard drive over the network, but can only manage to get read-only access. When I run `ls -l` on Mac 2, it appears that I should have write access:
JunsMacbookAir:~ junyu$ ls -l /Volumes/WB3TB/
total 160
drwxr-xr-x 1 junyu staff 16384 Jun 14 2018 Music
drwxr-xr-x 1 junyu staff 16384 May 24 2018 Photos

drwxr-xr-x 1 junyu staff 16384 Aug 11 21:35 x_TODO_IMGFROMPHONE
Here's what I get when I try to create a file on the hard drive via the terminal on Mac 2:
JunsMacbookAir:~ junyu$ touch /Volumes/WB3TB/test.txt
touch: /Volumes/WB3TB/test.txt: Read-only file system
Here's the file system format of the external hard drive in question (viewed from Mac 1):
Here's the output from the `mount` command (relevant hard drive is at the end)
JunsMacbookAir:~ junyu$ mount
/dev/disk1s1 on / (apfs, local, journaled)
devfs on /dev (devfs, local, nobrowse)
/dev/disk1s4 on /private/var/vm (apfs, local, noexec, journaled, noatime, nobrowse)
map -hosts on /net (autofs, nosuid, automounted, nobrowse)
map auto_home on /home (autofs, automounted, nobrowse)
//test@Zhen%E2%80%99s%20MacBook%20Pro._smb._tcp.local/WB3TB on /Volumes/WB3TB (smbfs, nodev, nosuid, read-only, mounted by junyu)
Any advice on how to get write access for the networked drive would be appreciated.
