Re: ExecCGI ignored within nfs share (Apache Users)

Should have said "exported" with noexec instead of mounted to make it more clear. Then it doesn't matter what you do on the client side you will still not be able to run exe files.

Since this is not the case maybe the perms of the directories on that path have no exe permissions them self?

The apache process user can execute scripts under nfs share:
su - www-data -s /bin/bash -c "/shared/www_root/cgi2/test.sh" #working

I'm trying to execute some gci scripts under a certain directory stored under an nfs share without any success; the same configuration is working outside nfs share (i.e. under local filesystem).

Usually NFS shares are being mounted without exec permissions for security, you need to make sure that is not the case.
