one my main machine i'm sharing a directory through nfs /home/web/development/
and to keep everything simple i've allowed read/write access to said directory by anyone, but now i've got people connecting to the server as other users from their osX machines and programs like dreamweaver are giving cryptic errors about having to "redefine the site" every time they star the program. i'm thinking this is because the shares aren't being connected to as the same user. even though the share forces the group name to "web", the owner of the file remains the UID the connecting machine is using. if user "bob" is on one machine (UID 501) and user "saget" is on another (UID 501) they now can write to eachother's files can't they? isn't there a way to force nfs shares to login as a particular user? so all files in development/ will be owned and grouped as web? is this a good idea? is this even the cause of the problem? _________________________________ daniel a. g. quinn starving programmer the hottest places in hell are reserved for those who in times of great moral crises maintain their neutrality. - dante aleghieri (1265-1321) _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
