Hi, I've got a problem on the nfs export operation. I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask this, if not, can you please tell me where? Here's what I need: 1. I have a folder named /mnt/fs1 to be exported. 2. All the host in subnetwork 192.168.0.0/16 should be able access this folder, but their root should be squashed. 3. Some specified host in the same subnetwork can gain the root permission on the folder, for example: 192.168.0.21, 192.168.0.22. I've got a SLES11SP1 box as the nfs server, the nfs clients are SLES11SP1, too. And the test uses nfsv3. Here are the commands I used to do the export: #exportfs -o rw,root_squash 192.168.0.0/16:/mnt/fs1 #exportfs -o rw,no_root_squash 192.168.0.21:/mnt/fs1 #exportfs -o rw,no_root_squash 192.168.0.22:/mnt/fs1 After this, everything works as expected. But, after the following operations: #exportfs -u 192.168.0.0/16:/mnt/fs1 /* Delete this export */ # exportfs -o rw,root_squash 192.168.0.0/16:/mnt/fs1 /* And add it again */ Hosts on 192.168.0.21 and 192.168.0.22 doesn't get root permission any more. when I tried to write a file, it complains about "Permission denied". So, does the order of exportfs command has something to do the final result? Or am I doing something wrong?
