Hi everyone.
I have a Debian Linux 2.0.6 box which is NFS-mounting /var/spool/mail
and /home from a Slakware Linux 1.2.8 box. The 1.2.8 file system is exported
using default values, and UID's/GID's are shared between both systems.
The 2.0.6 box is mounting the file system using default settings.
The root account on the 2.0.6 client box cannot access NFS-mounted
files for read or write. I have read the man pages for exports, nfsd, mountd,
and mount on both boxes, along with the NFS-root mini-howto (just in
case...), but cannot find anything to indicate what's wrong. Therefore, I turn
to the experts. How can I get root account access to the NFS-mounted
file systems?
Thank you,
Mark
