I am currently trying to move my users home directories to a server running opensolaris 2009.06.
I have created an /export/home file system, then a child file system for each user. So when I go and mount the /export/home file system I get directories that are all owned by root and empty. If I mount the file system individually I get the proper ownerships and files. for example mounting /export/home/grant gives me all of my files and they are all owned by me. I was reading the sys admin guide and poking through the man pages and saw that I should really be using nfsv4 so I mounted with nfsv4 and I get the files now , but ownership is now nobody and the group is nogroup. I say automount is supposed to help but I can not really use automount here so that does not really help. I wanted to avoid using one filesystem for the whole group of user directories so I could have snapshots of certain users on a more regular basis. The system I am test mounting on is running ubuntu 9.04. Anyone had this experience and fixed it? Thank you. Grant -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
