Nothing?  Not even in /var/log/messages, dmesg, any dedicated nfs logs
your distro might have?  Can you start nfsd in debug mode?

> Is it even possible to share smb/cifs mounted filesystems with nfs?

I can't see why not - I'm sure I've done it in the past - I'll try it
now.

...

Well that's interesting - I too get a 'Permission Denied' error, and
syslog on the server says:

  rpc.mountd: getfh failed: Operation not permitted

This was attempting to export a CIFS-mounted folder via NFS.

Can someone else try this to confirm whether it's actually possible
with a recent Samba release???  I could've sworn I'd done this in the
past.

Cheers,
Adam.

I also tried with cifs. Doesn't work :(

Nop, no syslog entry.

Is it even possible to share smb/cifs mounted filesystems with nfs?

Hi Luis,
Although I don't use it, I've seen numerous posts about smbfs
filesystems not being supported anymore, and there are no more
code fixes for it.

Have you tried the replacement filesystem cifs?  My understanding
is cifs accomplishes the same goals and is supported in the
kernel.  See the command mount.cifs in the doco.

I've only seen this happen when the mountpoint was inside an exported
filesystem.  If you explicitly export the mountpoint it seems to work
(e.g. exporting /mnt will make a few empty folders available via NFS,
but exporting /mnt/blah explicitly will make the entire /mnt/blah
filesystem available over NFS.)

Cheers,
Adam.

What does syslog say?  NFS will usually give you a reason why
permission was denied.

Generally speaking, it is a fundamental security tenet of NFS that you cannot 
re-export a filesystem you have mounted from another system to still other 
systems.  I don't know if this applies to smb-mounted filesystems.

Yes, that is correct. 

This is because A and B and on a Gigabit network. B is also in an
100Mbs Network with a lot other machines. Since some people (sometimes) need 
data from A I need this
solution.

I did, the problem is that on server X i  mount:
mount B:/TERABYTE local_dir
I get
mount: B:/TERABYTE failed, reason given by server: Permission denied

On B's fstab I have:
//A/terabyte  /TERABYTE smbfs   
dmask=0777,fmask=0666,username=genuser,password=genuser 1 1
On B's exports I have:
/TERABYTE *(rw,sync)


Any ideas?

Thanks

Luis

So when workstation X starts copying files off B, it's actually getting
the files from A?

> Do you have this working?

Yep, like Gary says, just set it up like you normally would.  Don't
forget that you probably need to mount the share *before* you load the
NFS server, otherwise you'll share the empty mountpoint instead of the
actual files (yes, even once you mount the folder with smbmount the NFS
server will continue to share the empty mountpoint until you restart
it.)

How are you exporting from /etc/exports?
What parameters are you using to mount the smb filesystem?

If it work for you has to work for me :-p

Best regards,

everything is as per a normal NFS export

/path/to/share 192.168.2.99(rw,sync) 


for each share. Then in /etc/fstab I use

server:/path/to/share  /mnt/point  nfs  user,rw,hard,intr  0  0

Like I said, just do it normally. The fact that the shares are also 
available using Samba is irrelevant.

How are you exporting from /etc/exports?
What parameters are you using to mount the smb filesystem?

[Samba] Export Samba mount using nfs

2006-06-13 Thread Luis Rodrigues
Hello, 

I have an Lacie NAS disk attached to an Gigabit network. Since it only exports 
samba I mounted on one
of my gigabit Linux boxes with

smbmount //lacie/terabyte  /TERABYTE   -o 
defaults,username=genuser,password=genuser

Now I need to export that to all my linux boxes not on the Gigabit network 
using nfs.

When I try to mount   I get:
mount: old:/TERABYTE failed, reason given by server: Permission denied

Is it possible to export an smbmounted filesystem?

I saw another theread about this on the mailing list but it wasn't verry 
helpfull :(

Thanks in advance.
