List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , Sender: nfs-bounces@lists.sourceforge.net Errors-To: nfs-bounces@lists.sourceforge.net I have recently upgraded my NFS (and NIS) server to a newer system. Unfortunately, this has caused some very strange errors. Certain directories (such as .mozilla/firefox) will give Permission denied errors about 50% of the time. $ ls 8g3rtccm.default pluginreg.dat profiles.ini $ ls 8g3rtccm.default pluginreg.dat profiles.ini $ ls ls: .: Permission denied $ ls ls: .: Permission denied The client is using the same mount command as before, only with a different server name. Both the old and new servers are running Ubuntu 6.10 (one is a older P4, the new one is a dual processor Opteron) The fstab for the client has the line: vlsi-fs0:/export /home nfs rw,rsize=8192,wsize=8192,intr,hard 0 0 The host export file is pretty simple: /export *(rw,no_root_squash,sync) UIDs and GIDs for all files are the same (even though the NIS server changed as well). Any ideas on how to debug this problem? Thanks Don ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?
