Hello,
I've just setup a NAS running NFS on NetBSD. I can automatically mount the directory over NFS with the fstab entry:
x.x.x.:/samsMegaStorage /mnt/storage nfs rw 0 0
(where x.x.x.x is the Ip address of the server)
However when I mount it using sudo mount -a the owner of the mounted directory is changed from my desktop user to a UID of 1000. My user is 1001. I assume that this is the reason I can't write anytime to the directory after mounting without using sudo.
My exports file on the server contains the line:
/samsMegaStorage -network x.x.x.x -mask 255.255.255.0 -maproot=crayxmp:wheel
Crayxmp is my user on the server and has a UID of 1000. From what I gather (although I'm not sure this is right) the directory is being mounted with the UID of crayxmp. I thought I could just create a user on the server with a UID of 1001 and then use that with maproot. However that user is already being used by dbus
.
Anyway I'm not really sure exactly what I should do to fix this issue. It's really anoying having to be root to write to my NAS so any help anyone could give me with this would be very much appreciated!
