Description Ramakrishnan Periyasamy 2017-05-26 14:26:09 UTC 
Description of problem:
"Squash = No_Root_Squash;" Param needs to be added in NFS section of the document for enduser to change ownership of a particular directory in NFS mount. Without this param ownership of particular directory won't be changed, which is expected behaviour.

NFS behaviour with 'Squash' param
====================================
If enduser prefers to change ownership of particular directory in NFS mount to different user, then required "Squash = No_Root_Squash" param in EXPORT section of ganesha.conf.

NFS behaviour without 'Squash' param
======================================
1. Enduser can't change the ownership of a particular directory in NFS mount without 'Squash = No_Root_Squash' param in ganesha.conf. 
2. Default directory ownership will be with '4294967294' user.
