-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I have two boxes, one normally used by user A, and the other by user B. I want to make it possible for user A to access his files from B's computer, and vice versa.
So, in each computer I amended 1) file /etc/exports to export the relative directories and restarted nfs-kernel-server, and 2) amended file /etc/fstab to mount the the directories exported from the other computer in directores having the same name as the exported ones and ran mount -a. It is now possible for user A to log in on B's computer and see and use his files, but not the reverse: B cannot log in on A's computer and use his files. What I find strange is that the nfs settings on both computers are absolutely identical. Both computers use Etch. The names and ids of both users are the same; they both belong to the same group which has identical name and id on both computers; and the permissions are the same "drwxrwx---". One computer is a P4; the other is a dual core. The export from the P4 to the dual core works; but the export from the dual core to the P4 does not. When I run mount -a on the P4 the following is returned for each directory to be mounted: failed, reason given by server: Permission denied After careful and extended experimentation I can't figure out why the dual core cannot export. I no one can provide me advice to point to why, perhaps I should file a bug report.
