  • Most NFS servers will squash the root user to a low to no privilege UID/GID after the mount is successful.
  • The only thing that will veto file/directory permissions is if the export was mounted 'read-only'
  • Once mounted, file/directory permissions will take over.
  • Anyone who can logon to the computer, and has sudo rights to mount, will be able to mount the export.
  • NFS clients are granted mount privileges by hostnames, not users.
  • For the sake of simplicity, we will assume we are using NFSv3. To help you understand your issue, there are a few things you need to know about the NFS protocol. I hope i managed to explain myself so that this is understandable?!Īnybody cares to help, in advance:Thank you!! I´m ripping out my hair on this thing. Tried looking into Directory Utlity, no luck, tried too see if there where any settings i´ve changed in NFS manager (I believe it was after this was installed everything got messed up.) but nothing i´ve tried resets this automagical logon to the mounted server share. Really have no idea what search phrase i should use to find this kind of issue. I searched a lot of hours trying to find someone with the same problem, but no luck. I even tried changing the user and groups on the share, but it just connects anyway, but only view. Where is this setting hidden in OSX? How can i get the option too choose user to logon the server with again? This works, but i cant choose user anymore?! And it seems to connect as whatever the server requires to view everything, but not add or delete files or folders. I tried to connect with the "command+K" option, entered the server adress and folder to mount. I tried lots of settings on the server side and started too get a little feel of how things where working, but somewhere along the line i must´ve added something to my OSX settings, because suddenly i couldn´t see the server anymore in finder.

    I could at first see the server when i browsed the "Network" in finder, when i clicked on it i could choose who i would log on as (guest or registered user). Didn´t really understand this yet, it doesn´t seem to straight forward for the unexperienced. I tried creating some shares and users and groups to test out how the system reacted to the different setting to get to understand the nfs/unix user system. Also, everybody should see that the "share 2" exists, but not be able to connect to it to see files/folders inside. This should require log in by privileged user. I was trying to get the share working as follows:Įverybody should be able to connect and see/use files in "share 1", but not delete anything. If anybody have the patience to aid me a little that would be apreciated! I am NOT experienced in this and have tried searching for answers to this with no luck.
