how to make root user read all
I want to know what i can set up so that root user can read everything. On my Solaris systems root can read the following directory.
drwxrwx--- 408 icsrc icarc0 36864 Aug 21 07:24 dev drwxrwsr-x 7 icsrc icarc0 4096 Aug 4 1998 test But on my linux systems it gets: [root@machine archives]# cd dev bash: cd: dev: Permission denied Is there a difference in the way linux mounts? Or is there an option to let root user mount this? Frank |

permissions
Just like the post above:
drwxrwx--- 408 icsrc icarc0 36864 Aug 21 07:24 dev from solaris root gets in fine, from RH linux no go. I am trying to figure out the difference... They are both talking to a NetApp FAS940 running OS 7.1 |

Are you talking about an NFS volume?
Normally root is mapped to nobody in an NFS mount, as root should only be trusted on your local machine. |
