When I create a file in an nfs4 share, I want it to be group rw. This is what I've tried so far: cat /etc/exports /home *(rw,no_root_squash,sec=none:sys:krb5:krb5i:krb5p,no_subtree_check,insecure) 1. Make a folder to share: hh3:/home/CACTUS # mkdir -m 770 dropbox hh3:/home/CACTUS # chown root:suseusers dropbox 2. Mount the share: hh3:/home/CACTUS # mount -t nfs4 hh3:/home /mnt 3. Look at the acls: nfs4_getfacl /mnt/CACTUS/dropbox A::OWNER@:rwaDxtTcCy A::GROUP@:rwaDxtcy A::EVERYONE@:tcy Set an acl so that members of suseusers have rw on the share: hh3:/home/CACTUS # nfs4_setfacl -a A:g:suseusers@hh3.site:RW /mnt/CACTUS/dropbox hh3:/home/CACTUS # nfs4_getfacl /mnt/CACTUS/dropbox/ A::OWNER@:rwaDxtTcCy A::GROUP@:rwaDxtcy A:g:suseusers@hh3.site:rwaDtcy A::EVERYONE@:tcy 4. Back in the unmounted directory, the acl + has appeared: hh3:/home/CACTUS # ls -la dropbox/ total 8 drwxrwx---+ 2 root suseusers 4096 Feb 19 10:55 . drwxr-xr-x 9 root root 4096 Feb 19 10:55 .. 5. On the mounted share, the acl + is not visible. steve6 can create a file but it is _not_ group rw: steve6@hh3:~> cd /mnt/CACTUS/dropbox/ steve6@hh3:/mnt/CACTUS/dropbox> touch hola.txt steve6@hh3:/mnt/CACTUS/dropbox> ls -la total 8 drwxrwx--- 2 root suseusers 4096 Feb 19 11:02 . drwxr-xr-x 9 root root 4096 Feb 19 10:55 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 steve6 suseusers 0 Feb 19 11:02 hola.txt Steps 1-5 were repeated with chmod g+s on /home/CACTUS/dropbox with the same outcome. 6. Recreate the share but this time with a posix acl: setfacl -d -m g::rw /home/CACTUS/dropbox steve6@hh3:/home/CACTUS> touch dropbox/h steve6@hh3:/home/CACTUS> ls -la dropbox/ total 8 drwxrws---+ 2 root suseusers 4096 Feb 19 11:13 . drwxr-xr-x 9 root root 4096 Feb 19 11:11 .. -rw-rw---- 1 steve6 suseusers 0 Feb 19 11:13 h Now when steve6 creates a file it _is_ group rw. = posix acl is working. 7. Mount the new posix share and test again: hh3:/home/CACTUS #chmod g+s /home/CACTUS/dropbox hh3:/home/CACTUS # mount -t nfs4 hh3:/home /mnt hh3:/home/CACTUS # nfs4_getfacl /mnt/CACTUS/dropbox/ A::OWNER@:rwaDxtTcCy A::GROUP@:rwaDxtcy A::EVERYONE@:tcy A:fdi:OWNER@:rwaDxtTcCy A:fdi:GROUP@:rwaDtcy A:fdi:EVERYONE@:tcy steve6@hh3:/mnt/CACTUS/dropbox> touch h2 steve6@hh3:/mnt/CACTUS/dropbox> ls -la total 8 drwxrws--- 2 root suseusers 4096 Feb 19 11:19 . drwxr-xr-x 9 root root 4096 Feb 19 11:11 .. -rw-rw---- 1 steve6 suseusers 0 Feb 19 11:13 h -rw-r----- 1 steve6 suseusers 0 Feb 19 11:19 h2 hh3:/home/CACTUS # nfs4_getfacl /mnt/CACTUS/dropbox/ A::OWNER@:rwaDxtTcCy A::GROUP@:rwaDxtcy A::EVERYONE@:tcy A:fdi:OWNER@:rwaDxtTcCy A:fdi:GROUP@:rwaDtcy A:fdi:EVERYONE@:tcy hh3:/home/CACTUS # nfs4_setfacl -a A:fdi:GROUP@:RWX /mnt/CACTUS/dropbox hh3:/home/CACTUS # nfs4_getfacl /mnt/CACTUS/dropbox/ A::OWNER@:rwaDxtTcCy A::GROUP@:rwaDxtcy A::EVERYONE@:tcy A:fdi:OWNER@:rwaDxtTcCy A:fdi:GROUP@:rwaDxtcy A:fdi:EVERYONE@:tcy steve6@hh3:/mnt/CACTUS/dropbox> touch h3 steve6@hh3:/mnt/CACTUS/dropbox> ls -la total 8 drwxrws--- 2 root suseusers 4096 Feb 19 11:21 . drwxr-xr-x 9 root root 4096 Feb 19 11:11 .. -rw-rw---- 1 steve6 suseusers 0 Feb 19 11:13 h -rw-r----- 1 steve6 suseusers 0 Feb 19 11:19 h2 -rw-r----- 1 steve6 suseusers 0 Feb 19 11:21 h3 Still no group rw on created files. = nfs4 acl is not working as expected. Workaround. Round peg, square hole: #!/bin/sh while true; do $(chmod -R g+w /home/CACTUS/dropbox); sleep 2; done Question: What am I missing? How do I set files created on an nfs4 share to take group rw? Thanks, L x -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
