Steps:
I editted the /etc/exports to export the /home dir as per the NFS howto and that seemed to work as the user homes were mounted in the correct place after an edit to my /etc/fstab
"192.168.0.254:/home /mnt/home nfs rw,hard,intr 0 0" good :)
Then I started adding users, I added one user and did not create a /home/user directory instead pointed the home folder to /mnt/home/user
But when I try to login as that user I got the dreaded:
"User's $HOME/.dmrc file is being ignored. This prevents the default sessionand languages from being saved. File should be owned by user and have 644 Permissions. User's $HOME directory must be owned by user and not writable by other users."
So I looked into the permissions and this is what I see serverside:
[root@LTSP ~]# ls -al /home
total 64
drwxr-xr-x 8 root root 4096 Sep 15 23:13 .
drwxr-xr-x 24 root root 4096 Sep 22 17:45 ..
drwx------ 27 ainsley ainsley 4096 Sep 23 19:13 ainsley
drwx------ 31 Dan Dan 4096 Sep 24 21:42 Dan
drwx------ 27 darren darren 4096 Sep 23 18:17 darren
drwx------ 33 devin devin 4096 Sep 24 07:28 devin
drwx------ 22 kristi kristi 4096 Sep 24 21:35 kristi
drwx------ 21 landen landen 4096 Sep 24 21:14 landen
BUT when I look at the /mnt/home listing I see a completely different set of permissions:
drwxr-xr-x 8 root root 4096 Sep 15 23:13 .
drwxr-xr-x 24 root root 4096 Sep 22 17:45 ..
drwx------ 27 devin devin 4096 Sep 23 19:13 ainsley
drwx------ 31 Dan Dan 4096 Sep 24 21:42 Dan
drwx------ 27 kristi kristi 4096 Sep 23 18:17 darren
drwx------ 33 503 503 4096 Sep 24 07:28 devin
drwx------ 22 504 504 4096 Sep 24 21:35 kristi
drwx------ 21 505 505 4096 Sep 24 21:14 landen
the ones in bold are definately wrong, and I have no idea how they are being set. unless it is because they are not accounts on the test machine yet but then neither is the "landen" account and that one has the correct permissions sort of....
the user numbers are correct for the user names by the way.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!
Dan
