No write access to exported file system
Solaris 2.6 : I have a fresh disk on a sun named /export/usr that I need to share to other Suns mounted on each client as /common (to be shared development tools). I have set it up I believe the same way I'm exporting the home directories on another Sun, which is working fine. But the /common becomes read only on the NFS clients, even to the local root (try to touch a file and it replies "cannot create". Only root on the NFS server itself can write in the /export/usr space (which shows up fine in /common on the clients). The Client /etc/vfstab files look like:
oswald:/export/usr - /common nfs - yes intr,hard,bg,noac
Servers /etc/dfs/dfstab has:
share -F nfs -o rw -d "exported common tools" /export/usr
And "dfshares" command returns:
oswald:/export/usr oswald - -
"dfmounts" shows both clients:
- oswald /export/usr clive.auvo.com,harold.auvo.com
/etc/mnttab on a client shows:
oswald:/export/usr /common nfs intr,hard,bg,noac,dev=3300002 984519671
/common directory permissions become:
drwxrwxr-x 6 root sys
and can't be changed.
Anyone have an idea why it becomes read-only on the clients? I must be overlooking something simple or perhaps it has to be set up differently than exporting home dir's? All help is greatly appreciated!!
Thanks,
David
