Hi!
My name is Dmitry. I'm a first year student of Bachelor of CS in ECU. I 
have just a little experience in Linux, but I want to migrate to 
Ubuntu\Mint from Windows.
To use Linux it's  necessary for me to have few possibilities  - almost 
all of them I've already solved, but not next one.

It's |necessary for me to have availability to download torrents 
directly to media-player.|
I have small WiFi LAN at home: Netgear, Desktop, Laptop, media-player 
etc. IP-Addresses are static.
I use windows on my Desktop and want to migrate to Ubuntu.
On windows i just go to |network-> mediaplayer(wdtvlive) -> hdd and 
torrents download there.|
on Ubuntu 13.04 I have access to media player by network. I can 
download\upload files with no problem.
|Problem exist when i try to download torrents directly to it.| 
Transmission doesn't give access to network, so have to mount it.
I've created folder on |/mnt/wdtvlive|. then give permissions to me and 
others to access and create files.
Then I mount it by command

/mount //10.1.1.108/Seagate_Expansion_Drive /mnt/wdtvlive -o 
username=dmitry,password=1,dir_mode=0777,file_mode=0777,iocharset=utf8//
/
but it return error said that /can't mount read-only device/ or 
/error(13): permission denied/.
command

/echo 0x30030 > /proc/fs/cifs/SecurityFlags///

helps. after it i can mount media player to this folder. Media player 
don't really need psw and login - anyone in WORKGROUP can access it.

Finally i try to download any torrent to /mnt/wdtdlive/

transmission starts to download and then |return an error: permission 
denied.|

I change permissions and owner to folders /mnt and /mnt/wdtvlive, but 
probably reboot is needed. But after reboot permissions changed by 
themselves.
It continued for /mnt , but not for /mnt/wdtvlive and all folders that 
inside

ls -l /
drwxrwxrwx 3 dmitry dmitry 4096 Jun 1 09:52 mnt

ls -l /mnt
drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 0 May 31 12:33 wdtvlive

Have no idea how to solve it. Please help.

Regards,
Dmitry.
