I don't agree that the problem is small. The FIX is small, but the problem is big: it basically means that the /net map is completely unusable in Hardy, for any environment where filesystems are exported with different permissions to different sets of hosts.
As I mentioned above, this is an extremely common situation in Enterprise environments where you have dedicated fileservers/NAS boxes: you typically export them without root squash to one box, for managing the content (since you don't want to log into the NAS box to do it), and WITH root squash everywhere else (to ensure root-owned files are not overwritable by any random client). Since Hardy is an LTS release one would assume that it would be particularly recommended for Enterprise environments and more sensitive to these sorts of bugs than a "normal" Ubuntu release. -- The auto.net script that comes with autofs is broken https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/111612 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
