Hi all...
Here's the deal, I on "Poky" my smallist system. I want to run "mc" which is on "CW". So I mount CW by NFS then try to run mc. But I get permission denied. How do I tell CW that Poky has full access to the files.
------------ Here's what happened:
Poky:~ # mount /CW/ Poky:~ # cd /CW/usr/bin Poky:/CW/usr/bin # ./mc bash: ./mc: Permission denied Poky:/CW/usr/bin # -------------------------
Well, can you run other programs off of your NFS mount? How is the export mounted? Do you have the same UID on both machines? How about an ls -l on the files? Greg

By default, when accessing files over NFS, user 'root' is mapped to user 'nobody', which could cause your permission denied message. If your security is such that this feasable, edit /etc/exports and add 'no_root_squash' to the end of the appropriate line, eg (from my /etc/exports): /pub 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0 (rw,no_root_squash) Hope that helps, Chris -- __ _ -o)/ / (_)__ __ ____ __ Chris Reeves /\\ /__/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / ICQ# 22219005 _\_v __/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\
