Hello list! I'm struggling with NFS4 and all_squash but I cannot get it working. We have a file server exporting shares using nfs4 (and samba, but it's not important) We don't use kerberos. We use NFS4 only because we found it was more stable and faster with KDE. We have some shared directories that need to be owned by nobody:somegroup (for quota purposes) server: $ cat /etc/exports /NFSROOT *(rw,sync,no_subtree_check,fsid=root) /NFSROOT/home *(rw,sync,no_subtree_check) /NFSROOT/shares/Sistemas *(rw,sync,no_subtree_check,all_squash,anongid=1002) $ ls -l /NFSROOT/shares/ drwxrws--- 2 nobody sistemas 4096 2010-10-12 22:44 Sistemas client: $ mount | grep nfsserver nfsserver:/shares/Sistemas on /compartidos/sistemas type nfs4 (rw,clientaddr=10.11.101.124,addr=10.11.101.126) $ touch /compartidos/sistemas/pepepe $ ls -ln /compartidos/sistemas/ total 0 -rw-r--r-- 1 1000 1002 0 2010-10-12 22:45 pepepe If I use nfs3: $ sudo umount /compartidos/sistemas $ sudo mount -t nfs nfsserver:/NFSROOT/shares/Sistemas sistemas/ $ touch /compartidos/sistemas/qwerwer $ ls -ln /compartidos/sistemas/ total 0 -rw-r--r-- 1 1000 1002 0 2010-10-12 22:45 pepepe -rw-r--r-- 1 65534 1002 0 2010-10-12 22:48 qwerwer Why uid:1000 with nfs4 and uid:65534 with nfs3? What am I missing? Note that I would like nfs4 behave like nfs3.
