adduser, chown: /home2/xyz: Operation not permitted

[stanliao]

Thank you very much.

 

So, this is because files in FAT filesystem are described by FAT directory
entries; directory entries contain no such information fields
(owner/group/other rwx attributes) or extension fields for these
information; and naturally chown, chgp, chmod operations fail, am I wrong?

AFAICS, uid of newly created /home2/xyz equals to uid you used to mount
/home2. msdos does NOT support uid/gid and other UNIX security stuff. Thus
the errors.
