USB file transfer question
#3
A possible solution would be to set your username on mobian to the same as on your computer.
I haven't tried that so I do not know what you would have to do so that phosh is ok with it.
A workaround would be to make a "mobian" user on your workstation and change the owner on your workstation.

The most clean way would possibly be to let the Bluetooth or USB file sharing daemon do that.
Unluckily I am not involved enough to know how to do that.

Sorry if that isn't helpful.

Another workaround would be to set the permission of "others" to what you need it to be.

The thing with ssh is that there the ssh server takes care of the problem.
With USB-MTP I think you mean using a usb stick which most likely is formated NTFS or fat.
This would mean that the "owner" and the permission are getting lost since this are features of the filesystem, which NTFS and fat does not support and
aren't part of the file itself.
