I've modified the /etc/exports file to export my bali:/usr/local
for root (though allowing root only from specific clients).
I've made no changes to /etc/fstab since we already didn't have
the "nosuid" option on the mount for the partition.
I've confirmed that I can create files on /usr/local from the nfs
clients (by creating a file there).
This had no effect on the problems I've seen either from the
NFS server/Amanda Server BALI
ERROR: running as user "amanda" instead of "root"
nor the error on the NFS client/Amanda server Laksha
ERROR: andaman: [host laksha: port 1182 not secure]
ERROR: laksha: [host laksha: port 1182 not secure]
I'm a little afraid the error is higher up in the stack,
something perhaps in the amanda config or compilation though
there were no errors in compilation and the make install
ran smoothly as well.
Doing a fresh make install this morning I found that all
suid programs where installed with the suid bit set, with
owner root:sys
-rwsr-x--- 1 root sys
where the configure had been done with --with-user=amanda
--with-group=sys and the amanda account (local in /etc/passwd on
each server and client with identical/same UID) belonging to group sys.
