Only up for a few minutes at 05:15 to give a cat water...... Normally root access is not "allowed" across NFS mounts. You're logged in as root on the client. I've not done this in a while so you'll have to check..... On the server side you probably have root_squash specified in the exports file. I think that needs to be changed to no_root_squash. You have to unmount the file system on the client side, re-export the files system on the server side, and then remount on the client side. -- Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots.
