What am I doing wrong?
That's how it is supposed to work. nfs is a Unix filesystem, it obeys Unix user and permissions (unlike say VFAT or smbfs where it has to fudge these things). NFS will mount the filesystem using whatever is set on the server. You cannot override the permissions the server has set from the client You probably want to tweak your squash settings. Check /etc/exports on adam or run "shopmount -e adam" on your local machine -- Alan McKinnon [email protected]
