Description of problem: Using the /etc/exports file on the nfs server (192.168.1.101), i'm attempting to export /exportedpath, which on the server has a uid/gid of 501, as a uid/gid of 500 via the following line: /exportedpath 192.168.1.100(ro,all_squash,anonuid=500,anongid=500) However, nfs mounting that path on the client via the following line in /etc/fstab: 192.168.1.101:/exportedpath /impotedpath nfs ro,hard,intr 0 0 still mounts the imported path using a uid/gid of 501. How reproducible: Every time. Additional info: Client uname -a: Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.24.3-50.fc8 #1 SMP Thu Mar 20 13:39:08 EDT 2008 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux Server uname -a: Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.24.3-50.fc8 #1 SMP Thu Mar 20 13:39:08 EDT 2008 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
The anonuid=500,anongid=500 setting seem to be working for me. Here is what I'm doing: server# echo "/home *(rw,fsid=1,nohide,all_squash)" > /etc/exports server# exportfs -arv exporting *:/home client# mount server:/home /mnt/server/home client# ls -lian /mnt/server/home/tmp/bb 2752544 -rw-r--r-- 1 65534 65534 0 2008-04-04 10:58 /mnt/server/home/tmp/bb client# rm /mnt/server/home/tmp/bb client# umount /mnt/server/home server# echo "/home *(rw,fsid=1,nohide,all_squash,anonuid=500,anongid=500)" > /etc/exports server# exportfs -arv exporting *:/home client# mount server:/home /mnt/server/home client# touch /mnt/server/home/tmp/bb client# ls -lian /mnt/server/home/tmp/bb 2752544 -rw-r--r-- 1 500 500 0 2008-04-04 11:02 /mnt/server/home/tmp/bb
Are you still seen this problem?
Yes, using /home/freedarandy 192.168.1.100(rw,fsid=1,nohide,all_squash,anonuid=500,anongid=500) in the server:/etc/exports (i used your options since they were different than mine). on the client, as root, i enter "mount server:/home/freedarandy /home/freedarandy" followed by "touch /home/freedarandy". Then (as yates) ls -liam /home/freedarandy gives 15040669 drwx------ 55 501 501 4096 2008-05-23 23:33 freedarandy Note the uid/gid is still 501 and not 500. Steve, if you'd like, call me 919-577-9882 (I'm in Fuquay) to discuss it.
PS: Steve, why are you looking at the tmp/bb subdirectory of /mnt/server/home? Also, note that I'm not using a mount point in /mnt but rather in /home. I wouldn't think that would matter.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 8 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 8. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '8'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 8's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 8 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 8 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-01-07. Fedora 8 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
