NFS share for a certain user

Harlin · 05-14-2007, 09:36 AM

On my nfs server i have a directory called /var/www/html/lectures. I have it set up as an NFS share. My export file from the server side looks like so:

/var/www/html/lectures 19.29.149.81(rw) 9.9.149.82(rw)

From the client side i do a mount command like so:

mount 19.29.149.81:/var/www/html/lectures /var/www/html/lectures

As root even I cannot create a file there though I do have full read privileges. Is there anything else that needs to be set up so I can have write access to it as well?

Thanks,

Harlin

Ok.. fixed it.. here's what i did... I put this in /etc/exports :

/path/to/html 19.29.149.81(rw,insecure,sync,insecure_locks,all_squash,anonuid=0,anongid=0)
/path/to/html 19.29.149.82(rw,insecure,sync,insecure_locks,all_squash,anonuid=0,anongid=0)

And then on the client side i did:

mount ip.address:/path/to/html /path/to/mount

It now works exactly as i wanted.

Thanks,
