what is importfs?
if you mean exportfs, it's not going to do what lyndon wants
you can import devices as a normal user
; import -E ssl minooka.coraid.com '#æ' /n/mæ
but that doesn't change the system's idea of who you are
; cd /n/mæ/aoe && ls -l
--rw-r--r-- M 71124 bootes bootes 0 Oct 28 12:26 ctl
--r--r--r-- M 71124 bootes bootes 0 Oct 28 12:26 log
; echo bind '#l1/ether1' > ctl
ctl: rc: can't open: 'ctl' './aoe/ctl' permission denied
you can import as another user, say bootes. but in order to
do that, every member of the group has to have bootes'
password. but if that were the case, lyndon's users could just
cpu in as bootes.
