[OpenIndiana-discuss] NFS4 users

[Gabriele Bulfon]

Thanx for your suggestion, but I think the no_root_squashing is achieved through the "root="
option on zfs.
Infact, my zfs share output is like this:
- at data/sonicle  /data/sonicle/webtop   sec=sys,rw=@192.168.222.198/32,root=@192.168.222.198/32   ""
- at data/sonicle  /data/sonicle/www   sec=sys,rw=@192.168.222.200/32,root=@192.168.222.200/32   ""
found no other way to disable root_squashing but this.
and actually, it's not squashing root, it's squashing any non existant uid on the server.
any way to disable this?

If you don't use a unifying authentication system such as LDAP or
NIS+, look up the root_squash and no_root_squash NFS share options.
I'm not sure if this will fix your problems, I've used pure NFSv4 most
of the time.

Hi, is there any way to let NFS4 server not require the same users of the client to exist on the server??
I noticed that the root access on an NFS4 server, let me chmod on any user who's id exists on the server,
wether it is same name or not. Any chmod to a uid not existent on the server, is changed to nobody...
For example, I shared a filesystem, and filled it with an original filesystem, through NFS3.
If I mount it with vers=3, I get all the correct permissions from the client view, wether they exist or not
on the server.
If I mount the same share with vers=4, I get correct permissions only for files with uid existent on the
server (even if different names), all the others files get the user nobody............
I want to use NFS4, because I noticed that locking management is much better, and cyrus does not
complain. But this permission limitation is annoying.
Any idea?
Gabriele.
