So the problem seems very similar to mine. If it's really the case, it is not due to LDAP, but only to NFSV4.
It seems that nfs-kernel-server needs nfs-common to be started. And vice et versa. The solution found on Debian bug analysis is to restart nfs-common in rc.local so idmapd runs correctly, and users are correctly mapped. 2009/6/16 Mark Hannon <markhan...@optusnet.com.au> > Hi Jeremy, > > The problem is that *all* files/directories on the NFS4 mount are owned > by nobody:nogroup. > > Regards/Mark > > > -----Original Message----- > From: boun...@canonical.com [mailto:boun...@canonical.com] On Behalf Of > Jeremy Vies > Sent: Monday, 15 June 2009 5:35 PM > To: markhan...@optusnet.com.au > Subject: [Bug 335858] Re: rpc.idmapd does not see LDAP users (nfs4 server) > > Hi, > > are users not defined in ldap also affected ? > > I've some similar bug (except I don't have users managed by ldap) with a > server running 8.04 and a client running 9.04. > It seems similar to Debian Bug#468177: nfs-common: idmapd fails mapping if > started before server > > -- > rpc.idmapd does not see LDAP users (nfs4 server) > https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/335858 > You received this bug notification because you are a direct subscriber > of the bug. > > -- > rpc.idmapd does not see LDAP users (nfs4 server) > https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/335858 > You received this bug notification because you are a direct subscriber > of the bug. > -- Theory is where you know everything, but nothing works; practice is where everything works, but nobody knows why.
