Permission denied issue on a Shared drive
Hi,
I have 2 linux servers. One of them has a mount which I have mapped to a shared samba directory on the other server. Below will help you understand better.
smb.conf on Server1:
[global]
workgroup = WRKGRP
netbios name = smbserver
security = SHARE
load printers = No
default service = global
path = /home
available = No
guest account = nobody
encrypt passwords = yes
[share]
writeable = yes
path = /mnt/landingzone/CEMP
public = yes
available = yes
[velodrome]
writeable = yes
path = /mnt/landingzone/VELODROME
public = yes
available = yes
[sdvstaging]
writeable = yes
path = /mnt/landingzone/SDVSTAGING
force user = dbadmin
public = yes
available = yes
[landingzone]
writeable = yes
path =/mnt/landingzone
public = yes
available = yes
fstab on Server2
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 / ext3 defaults 1 1
LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2
tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
sysfs /sys sysfs defaults 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01 swap swap defaults 0 0
//Server1/share /mnt/CEMP cifs username=dbadmin,password=#### 0 0
Below is the problem.
I get permissions denied problems on certain files when I try to access the shared directory from Server2.
On Server2:
jfverticavod01:/mnt/CEMP $ id
uid=501(dbadmin) gid=501(dbadmin) groups=501(dbadmin),504(verticadba),505(cemp) context=user_u:system_r:unconfined_t
jfverticavod01:/mnt/CEMP $ ls -lrt CEMP_VOD_ASSET_20110401.txt
-rw-r----- 1 cemp cemp 41680 Apr 2 11:00 CEMP_VOD_ASSET_20110401.txt
jfverticavod01:/mnt/CEMP $ more CEMP_VOD_SG_MAPPING_20110402.txt
CEMP_VOD_SG_MAPPING_20110402.txt: Permission denied
Can anyone help me with this? Why is id dbadmin being treated as "other user" when dbadmin is a part of the correct "cemp" group?

vmhgfs
VMHGFS(9) Open VM Tools VMHGFS(9)
NAME
vmhgfs - vmware kernel module
SYNOPSIS
modprobe vmhgfs
DESCRIPTION
This is kernel filesystem module. None of the Tools components depend on vmhgfs, nor does it have any dependencies of its own, so it can be
loaded at any time in the boot process.
When mounting, one must use an NFS-like "<host>:<export>" syntax. The <host> field must be ".host", while the <export> field can be "/", a
path to a specific Shared Folder, or a path to a subdirectory within that Shared Folder. Note that mounting may fail if Shared Folders are
disabled in the host; don't be alarmed. The vmhgfs filesystem supports a plethora of mount options, run vmware-hgfsmounter(8) -h to see
them. We typically exclude vmhgfs from the locate database as crawling the Shared Folders is time consuming. To do this, add "vmhgfs" to
PRUNEFS within updatedb's configuration file, typically found in /etc/updatedb.conf.
We also typically mount vmhgfs via:
mount -t vmhgfs .host:/ /mnt/hgfs
Or by adding this line to /etc/fstab:
.host:/ /mnt/hgfs vmhgfs defaults 0 0
The net effect is that all Shared Folders appear and disappear at /mnt/hgfs as they're added or removed.
OPTIONS
vmhgfs has no options.
