NFS + File permissions

[bluelinenetworks]

Hello all,

I am trying to test a setup, but not very good with linux.

After a few hours of testing and trying, I don't know where to go next.

Trying to setup NFS, and partially there. I think its permissions now?

In my exports I have:

/shares/internal/    10.0.0.0/255.255.0.0(rw,async,anonuid=33,anongid=33)

my permissions I have:

drwxr-xr-x 7 www-data root 4096 Feb  6 04:00 internal

Sub directories are

drwxrwxr-x 2 www-data www-data  4096 Feb  5 23:33 PUBLIC
drwx------ 4 www-data root      4096 Apr 26  2009 RECORDING
drwx------ 2 www-data root      4096 Feb  6 01:57 TESTSHARE
drwx------ 2 root     root     16384 Feb 17  2002 lost+found
-rw-r--r-- 1 www-data root        18 Feb  6 04:00 test.txt

From what I have read this should allow anyone regardless of UID or GID to view the NFS share? Am I missing something?

EDIT: If I mount this using root from another linux box it works ok, so now it is just how to allow anon access? (trying to connect to VMWare ESXi with it)

Here are the examples from the nfs exports man page:

       # sample /etc/exports file
       /               master(rw) trusty(rw,no_root_squash)
       /projects       proj*.local.domain(rw)
       /usr            *.local.domain(ro) @trusted(rw)
       /home/joe       pc001(rw,all_squash,anonuid=150,anongid=100)
       /pub            (ro,insecure,all_squash)

So, for everyone to have rw access to /shares/internal like you want, with appropriate user permissions applied, remove the "10.0.0.0/255.255.0.0" from the line in exports, and remove the trailing / from /shars/internal/. Ie,

/shares/internal     (rw,async,anonuid=33,anongid=33)

Try it and let us know if that works.
