All the NFS clients in my net have different UIDs and GIDs for the local system accounts, esp. for libvirt and kvm. Sorry to say, but the problem is not solved yet. Questions: Why should libvirt have the privilege to change UID and GID of a disk image file on an NFS server? Usually this file is -rw------- for root. Doesn't the chown() to a UID != 0 weaken the security? Regards Harri -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
