Hallo,
because of a lack of diskspace I want to use another computer
(HP-Workstation) as NFS-server. So I installed the base disks
of debian and wanted to move /usr to the NFS server by
tar -cf usr.tar /usr
and
tar -xf usr.tar
in the approriate directory of the server mounted via NFS.
But I got:
tar: Cannot change mode of file <...> to <644/755>: Operation not permitted
for each file which is untared. The files exists after this mess of
errormessages and have the right rights but the owner is root (the root
of the server) and so
rm -r usr
ends with
rm: <...> : Permisssion denied.
OK, the reason is that the information in /etc/exports of the NFS-Server
is not correct. I played around with several combinations of
/usr/local/linux -access=<my.pc>
/usr/local/linux -access=<my.pc>,root=<my.pc>
/usr/local/linux -rw=<my.pc>
...
Please don't ask me what ever I tried but nothing helped. Yes I did not
forget to call exportfs -a after every change in /etc/exports.
Is anybody out there who knows the right way to setup the server
correctly????
Any help appreciatet
Andreas.
