Okay I've got NFS running on two of my computers and I was able to mount the sharable mount from one computer to the other. Now here is my issue how do I give write permission for username@computer1 to /nfs/dir@computer2? And yes in /etc/exports I set it as read write (rw). This is what I attempted. I created a user with the same name on computer2 (yes at some point I should have all my user accounts on the same box) then created a group. I added the user to that group on computer2 and gave that group ownership of the directory and rw permision. username@computer2 can now successfully create files in the directory. Now I go back to computer1 mount -t nfs the directory then su - back to username and try to write to the directory It says I don't have permission. What am I missing. Is there a setting to allow users on remote hosts to write to the directory? Is there a way to add a remote user to the group list?
