Usually people use something like nis or ldap as a common database for user and group information. (There are outstanding patches to allow the client to use numbers for everything on the wire, if you turn on some module parameter. We may patch the server similarly. But then you would need all your clients to be recent enough, and turn on the necessary option on all of them and on the server.) --b. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-nfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
