OK issue is kind of resolved. Though not in an ideal way. The issue is this, I had two exports which seem to conflict and cause an issue: If my exports is like so: /etc/exports # the data on server under /data/nextcloud is 67:67 . the client is also 67:67 /data/nextcloud -alldirs -network=192.168.1.252 -mask=255.255.255.255 # the data under /data/media is 1000:1000 the client is 67:67 /data/media -mapall=1000:1000 -alldirs -network=192.168.1.252 -mask=255.255.255.255 Then I can't write to /data/media from 1.252 from uid:gid 67:67 as 1000:1000 as the first entry seems to take precedence over the latter. If I swap the two entries, then I can write to /data/media from client uid 67:67 as 1000:1000. However then the second entry breaks. How can one get both entries to work? One way I have done it, is by doing this: # on the server, (I don't care if the files sit as 1000:1000 on the server) chown -R 1000.1000 /data/nextcloud/ then -mapall=1000:1000 for both entries, then there is no conflict and both work. /etc/exports # the data on server under /data/nextcloud is 67:67 . the client is also 67:67 /data/nextcloud -mapall=1000:1000 -alldirs -network=192.168.1.252 -mask=255.255.255.255 # the data under /data/media is 1000:1000 the client is 67:67 /data/media -mapall=1000:1000 -alldirs -network=192.168.1.252 -mask=255.255.255.255
