Root usually has no permissions over NFS (it gets mapped to the user
"nobody").  Try manipulating the file directly on the NFS server.

File won't move

2007-02-02 Thread Jay Chandler

Have a file mounted on an NFS share.

I attempt to move it, rename it, copy it, or just about ANYTHING to it 
as root, and get a Permission Denied error.


How can I figure out what's going on?
