Re: [gentoo-user] nfs error: "permission denied" when executing a command
Hi James and the others, thank you very much, this option made the trick.

The name of the mounting user is written to mtab so that he can unmount the file system again. This option implies the options noexec, nosuid, and nodev (unless overridden by subsequent options, as in the option line user,exec,dev,suid) So, short answer, add "exec" to your mount options...

Solution is no_root_squash option in /etc/exports, usual warnings about running as untrusted root apply - mismatched uids between the two machines. You may well have a user joe on both machines but that doesn't mean they have the same uid. You'll need to have some kind of centralised user management system in place for this (such as NIS), or dream up some scheme using groups, or manually sync the /etc/passwd files on both machines alan -- Optimists say the glass is half full, Pessimists say the glass is half empty, Developers say wtf is the glass twice as big as it needs to be?

Do you actually have the authority to run the program in question? Another gotcha could be: Are you trying to run a program that needs to be run as root? NFS won't let you do many rootly things over NFS unless you add a no_root_squash to the share options in /etc/exports. Anywho.. I hope that helps, if not solve your problem, get you on the right track.. :) Best, --Glenn -- Glenn E.
