root permissions on NFS shares
|
|
| Jason Williard 2005-08-10, 5:54 pm |
| I have created a few NFS shares on my network and have got almost all the
kinks worked out. However, I noted one issue today that is quite annoying.
If I am working as root on one of the machines accessing a share, I am
unable to modify files on that share. It is obviously a permissions issue,
but is there any way to give root, on any system, full permissions on all
shares? I would like it to act as if the share was a local folder, if
possible.
Thank You,
Jason Williard

In the GUI tool options of the NFS export you have setup check.
"Treat remote root as local root"
Then reload NFS.
/etc/init.d/nfs reload
