I have some weirdness occurring with a couple of SGI workstations. The server is FreeBSD 4.2-STABLE running as an NFS server. My /etc/exports file consists of one line: /data/public -mapall=nobody:nobody (machine is behind a firewall, so anyone who can connect is trusted) However, when a user logs in as root to the SGI station, he can read/write all over the FreeBSD server with no problems, all files are created as root:wheel (why group wheel?) But if a normal user logs in to the SGI station, he can read but not write the NFS export on FreeBSD. It seems like a permissions problem to me. Why is the -mapall directive apparently not working? Any thoughts? -Bill To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
