retitle 470851 nbd-server: copy-on-write requires write access to base file
thanks

i think i figured out what was wrong...

/opt/ltsp/images/i386.img was only writeable by root, though readable by
everybody.

so when i started it from the commandline, as root, it worked fine. when
it started from inetd, as user nobody, it didn't allow write access.

i'm thinking if copy-on-write is enabled, it should only require read
access to the base file, as it can write to a separate file.

i'll take a look at the code, although my C is poor.

live well,
