Operating Systems AIX File Permissions nobody:nobody Post 302277438 by clking on Friday 16th of January 2009 09:42:36 AM

Found the problem...or, I should say, my co-worker saw the problem. We have two NICs on the server, and have addressing set up accordingly. Some time ago we had issues with the server, and it appears that I gave access to the servers with the "internal" naming convention that is supposed to be for the nim server. I was able to get to the share and do what I wanted from the "external," but then ran into the nobody:nobody file permission.

Because I was on server, sapdbw2, I changed the permission from db2 to sapdbw2 and was able to create a file/folder with the proper permissions.

I am still thinking about this, because it doesn't seem quite complete. I understand I have naming conventions that the nim server sees, and then what the rest of the world sees. Maybe I need to modify the /etc/hosts file so it doesn't matter if I have the server listed as db2 or sapdbw2.

NAME
pqrm - Remove job from NetWare print queue SYNOPSIS
pqrm [ -h ] [ -S server ] [ -U user name ] [ -P password | -n ] [ -C ] queue_name job_ID [ another_job_ID ... ] DESCRIPTION
pqrm remove specified jobs from the NetWare print queue available to you on some server. If you are already connected to some server, this one is used. pqrm looks up the file $HOME/.nwclient to find a file server, a user name and possibly a password. See nwclient(5) for more information. Please note that the access permissions of .nwclient MUST be 600, for security reasons. OPTIONS
queue_name queue_name is used to specify queue. You can not use wildcards in the name. job_ID , another_job_ID job_ID is used to specify which job has to be deleted. -S server server is the name of the server you want to use. -U user name If the user name your NetWare administrator gave to you differs from your unix user-id, you should use -U to tell the server about your NetWare user name. -P password You may want to give the password required by the server on the command line. You should be careful about using passwords in scripts. -n -n should be given to mount shares which do not require a password to log in. If neither -n nor -P are given, pqstat prompts for a password. -C By default, passwords are converted to uppercase before they are sent to the server, because most servers require this. You can turn off this conversion by -C. SEE ALSO
