NFS error

Hi All,

I am putting a file system from a HP-UX server to another HP-UX server by NFS.And i successfully mount the NFS mount point at the client server and i am also able to modify or write in the existing files but when i try to create a new file i have received an error cannot create don't have permission. So, please tell me the steps to provide the write permission at NFS mount point.

regards,

Re: NFS error

Hi

You need tp grant permission to the exported NFS filesystem on /etc/exports file on NFS server:

Options Used in the /etc/exports File

-ro : Used to grant read-only access to clients.

-rw : Used to grant read-write access to clients.
-access=client1[:client2] :Used to grant access to one or more clients only. The list of clients is separatedusing a colon.

- root=client1[:client2]: Used to grant root access to one or more clients. The list of clients is separated

-anon=uid : If a request comes from an unknown user, he or she is granted access using the UID specified here. Usually a UID of -2 is used that corresponds to a user nobody with minimum access rights.

-anon=65534 : Access to unknown users is not granted.

Thanks & Regards

Ramesh
