From: gthomas@fraser.sfu.ca (Guy Thomas) Subject: NFS: can it be write for root? Date: Thu, 1 Apr 1993 01:00:56 GMT
I have NFS mounted several directories from a NeXT to the Linux box.
For ordinary users they write and read fine. I have tried to
configure the mount so that root can write to the mounted directories
as well
mount -w host:/export/directory /mount/point
In the /etc/exports file on the NeXT is
/export/directory -rw=deer -access=linux-host -root=linux-host
The mount does not seem to recognize that root can have access.
Is this an artifact of the NeXT implementation of NFS or of the
mount on Linux?
Any hints welcome.
Guy
