There's all_squash, along with a way to choose what numeric id users are squashed to. Also, I believe there's idmapd which should be able to do an arbitrary mapping. > Or failing that, is there a way to change the user ids on one of the > machines without making a big mess? Go down to single-user mode and change owners at the same time you edit /etc/passwd and you should be fine, I think. -- "If there's one thing we've established over the years, it's that the vast majority of our users don't have the slightest clue what's best for them in terms of package stability." -- Gentoo Developer Ciaran McCreesh -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
