Don't know. Ignoring the UIDs shown on the server (ie umapped to a user on the server) for files created on the client...<br><br>... There is still a further problem of file permissions. Files created on one are not writable on the other unless chmod g+w performed by owner on machine where file created. Might try creating a new partition and mounting it with a specific GID and umask to set group write permission on all newly created files there.<br>

I'm halfway there now. Changed /etc/idmapd.conf on both client and server so that Nobody-User and Nobody-Group all specify my common user/group. The client sees all files as owned by common user and common group. The server sees files created on the server as owned by user who created them, but files created on client are owned by 65534 - which is the id of the nobody user in debian (nobody user under arch is 99). <br>

Hello,<br><br>Hoping someone can help... I've setup NFS to run under Arch Linux, and a client running Debian.<br><br>From the client machine, the UIDs + GIDs of files look like so:<br><br>-rw-r--r-- 1 4294967294 4294967294 0 Nov 4 14:05 pop<br>
-rw-r--r-- 1 4294967294 4294967294 12 Nov 4 13:11 test<br><br>I want at least for the GID to have some sensible value and decided to create a new group on both machines with the same GID of 10000. So in the /etc/exports I have this:<br>
<br>/srv/nfs/shared Laptop(rw,all_squash,sync,no_subtree_check,anongid=10000)<br><br>setup as per: <a href="https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Nfs#Server" target="_blank">https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Nfs#Server</a><br>
<br>
And in the client's /etc/fstab:<br><br>Desktop:/srv/nfs/shared /desktop/shared nfs rw,bg,hard,intr 0 0<br><br>I didn't want to set anonuid in the server /etc/exports as I want to give two user accounts on the client rw access to a shared folder, and ro access to another folder.<br>
<br>Thanks for any help,<br>James.<br>
