Hmm, I can reproduce this: burr > mount | grep larder /net/buxton/larder on buxton:/larder remote/read/write/nosetuid/nodevices/xattr/dev=4800001 on Thu Mar 8 08:09:25 2007 /mnt on buxton:/larder remote/read/write/setuid/devices/xattr/dev=4800002 on Thu Mar 8 08:12:58 2007
So I have one with nosetuid and one with setuid. It fails on both. If we look on the server: buxton > more /etc/dfs/dfstab share -F nfs /opt @tools share -F nfs -o anon=0 /larder buxton > more /etc/dfs/sharetab /larder - nfs rw /opt - at tools nfs rw A concern I had was that if "anon=0" was not set, permission would be denied no matter what the setgid bit was currently. And if I change the share to be: buxton > sudo share -F nfs -o root=burr /larder buxton > more /etc/dfs/sharetab /opt - at tools nfs rw /larder - nfs sec=sys,root=burr And now it works in the one with setuid enabled: burr > sudo mkdir nfstest/sudo burr > So look at your share options on the server, it needs to allow root access. The anon=0 failing is I think a known bug in the version of Nevada that I am running (snv55 + changes). I'll check within the group. This message posted from opensolaris.org
