OK, I'm seriously confused over this stuff, so really descriptive answers would be appreciated, especially if they make this whole mounting stuff less magical and more predictable. I am trying to mount my Drobo-FS NAS with nfs to get better performance than with cifs. The drobo is running some trimmed down linux distribution. Inside /etc/fstab on the client machine (Ubuntu with IP: 192.168.1.150) # Mount Drobo 192.168.1.100:/mnt/DroboFS/Shares/public /media/drobonfs nfs rw,soft,proto=tcp,users 0 0 I have unfsd installed on the drobo and access via ssh. This is the exports file on the server machine (Drobo-FS with IP 192.168.1.100): # Allow access for client machine /mnt/DroboFS/Shares 192.168.1.150(rw,no_root_squash) Mounting works fine, except that the mounted files are all owned by root with most of the file permissions set to 744.

The file permissions shown in the mount on the client match the actual permissions on the server. For example: client$ sudo chmod 123 /media/drobonfs/somefile client$ ls -l /media/drobonfs/somefile ---x-w--wx 1 root root 0 2012-01-04 14:15 /media/drobonfs/somefile drobo$ ls -l /mnt/DroboFS/Shares/public/somefile ---x-w--wx 1 root root 0 Jan 4 14:15 /mnt/DroboFS/Shares/public/somefile Writing sudo in front of every command is a drag and I want to understand what is going on, so what can I do to mount it on the client machine with the owner/group set to my account instead of root?

Learn how to install and configure a basic NFS. Nov 6, 2018 - Symptoms: Can manually mount Network File System (NFS); Linux. 1047329: Permission denied when mounting file system with NFS v4.

When a share is mounted the userID (UID) of the host system is mapped on the userID (UID) of the client. On the client the mapped user (based on the userID) will become the owner of the mounted share. Your problem is caused because the host uses other UID then the client. You can solve this by defining a /etc/nfs.map file: /etc/nfs.map This will look like: # remote local gid 500 1000 # drobo client uid 500 2003 # drobo client So when using NFS you need to make sure there is UID/GID matching between the users on host and client. Please read the following article also: Another great way to solve this problem is looking into the UID's on both host and client system by looking on this /etc/passwd file on both systems.

Or by typing: id tom change the UID with: usermod -u 10000 tom Good luck!

Topics • • • • • After creating a file system, by default, only the root user (UID 0) has read-write-execute permissions. For other users to modify the file system, the root user must explicitly grant them access. Amazon EFS file system objects have a Unix-style mode associated with them. Persamaan transistor d882p. This mode value defines the permissions for performing actions on that object, and users familiar with Unix-style systems can easily understand how Amazon EFS behaves with respect to these permissions. Additionally, on Unix-style systems, users and groups are mapped to numeric identifiers, which Amazon EFS uses to represent file ownership.

For Amazon EFS, file system objects (that is, files, directories, and so on) are owned by a single owner and a single group. Amazon EFS uses the mapped numeric IDs to check permissions when a user attempts to access a file system object. Following, you can find examples of permissions and a discussion about NFS permissions considerations for Amazon EFS. Example Amazon EFS File System Use Cases and Permissions After you create an Amazon EFS file system and mount targets for the file system in your VPC, you can mount the remote file system locally on your Amazon EC2 instance. The mount command can mount any directory in the file system. However, when you first create the file system, there is only one root directory at /. The following mount command mounts the root directory of an Amazon EFS file system, identified by the file system DNS name, on the /efs-mount-point local directory.

$ sudo chmod 777 / EFSroot This command grants read-write-execute privileges to all users on all EC2 instances that have the file system mounted. User and Group ID Permissions for Files and Directories Within a File System Files and directories in an Amazon EFS file system support standard Unix-style read, write, and execute permissions based on the user ID and group ID asserted by the mounting NFSv4.1 client. When users attempt to access files and directories, Amazon EFS checks their user IDs and group IDs to verify that each user has permission to access the objects. Amazon EFS also uses these IDs to indicate the owner and group owner for new files and directories that the user creates. Amazon EFS doesn't examine user or group names—it only uses the numeric identifiers. Note When you create a user on an EC2 instance, you can assign any numeric user ID (UID) and group ID (GID) to the user. The numeric user IDs are set in the /etc/passwd file on Linux systems.
