Hello, Didn't know about /var/lib/nfs/xtab, so it isn't what I expected. Only familliar with fstab. This xtab must have been automatically generated by something.
$ cat /var/lib/nfs/xtab /home/kmcgladr/images mabeline.localdomain(ro,async,wdelay,hide,secure,root_squash,no_all_squash,subtree_check,secure_locks,mapping=identity,anonuid=-2,anongid=-2) /home/kmcgladr/images mabeline.localdomain(ro,async,wdelay,hide,secure,root_squash,no_all_squash,subtree_check,secure_locks,mapping=identity,anonuid=-2,anongid=-2) - I don't know how to check the suid bit. I do know how to set it, but not how to test for it. from the server: $ id jennifer uid=502(jennifer) gid=502(jennifer) groups=502(jennifer),100(users),501(kmcgladr) from the client $ id jennifer uid=502(jennifer) gid=502(jennifer) groups=502(jennifer),100(users),501(kmcgladr) - No, I'm not running quotas (to the best of my knowledge). - Using diskdrake.... /home is ext3 /home/kmcgladr/images is listed as "linux native". Would that be ext2? I initially tried setting this up using the right-click "Share" menu item (in Konqueror). Only after that did not work did I attempt to configure NFS, based on the NFS-howto at the Linux Documentation Project. The manuals that shipped with the Power Pack didn't go into anywhere near this much detail. Is the source of my problems that the images volume is using another filesystem? And does that "share" menu item work for other end users? As for Samba, I'm already running it so VMWare has access to the host filesystem. I'm trying to not run it on my real network card in order to prevent any configuration conflicts.
