And you are correct in guessing it is a NFS mount.
I think we are making progress. What is the content (regarding this filesystem) of the file /etc/exports on the system exporting the share?
To be sure the loaded NFS configuration is what the file says issue a
as root on the exporting system. This re-exports all shares putting the current content of /etc/exports into effect (if it wasn't already). Check the effect with the command (as root)
Please forgive me, but I am not a Unix expert. I'm supporting SAP r/3 and we are trying to run an external command from SAP to read a file at the unix level.

Hi,
A simple and silly question on Unix.
I have a directory named "a" and I would like to grant permission to group name "text" to access, read and execute my directory.
Could anyone help me?
Thanks. (2 Replies)
In our file system, the SGID for a directory is set right now. Any new files created in this directory will automatically be assigned the same group from the parent directory.
Is there a way to inherit the file permission from the parent directory as well? The OS is Solaris 2.8.
Example:... (1 Reply)
I need to find all the files that have group Read or Write permission or files that have user write permission.
This is what I have so far:
find . -exec ls -l {} \; | awk '/-...rw..w./ {print $1 " " $3 " " $4 " " $9}'
It shows me all files where group read = true, group write = true... (5 Replies)

All:
I'm having a problem with sudo on Solaris 5.10 that is giving me fits (and BTW, I'm a Linux admin by trade...).

tried to find this out on Google, but... (2 Replies)

mountd
MOUNTD(8) BSD System Manager's Manual MOUNTD(8)NAME
mountd -- service remote NFS mount requests
SYNOPSIS
/sbin/mountd [-nr] [exportsfile]
DESCRIPTION
Mountd is the server for NFS mount requests from other client machines. Mountd listens for service requests at the port indicated in the NFS
server specification; see Network File System Protocol Specification, RFC1094, Appendix A and NFS: Network File System Version 3 Protocol
Specification, Appendix I.
Options and operands available for mountd:
-n The -n option allows non-root mount requests to be served. This should only be specified if there are clients such as PC's, that
require it.
-r The -r option allows mount RPCs requests for regular files to be served. Although this seems to violate the mount protocol specifi-
cation, some diskless workstations do mount requests for their swapfiles and expect them to be regular files. Since a regular file
cannot be specified in /etc/exports, the entire file system in which the swapfiles resides will have to be exported with the -alldirs
flag.
exportsfile
The exportsfile argument specifies an alternate location for the exports file.
When mountd is started, it loads the export host addresses and options into the kernel using the mount(2) system call. After changing the
exports file, a hangup signal should be sent to the mountd daemon to get it to reload the export information. After sending the SIGHUP (kill
-s HUP `cat /var/run/mountd.pid`), check the syslog output to see if mountd logged any parsing errors in the exports file.
FILES
/etc/exports the list of exported filesystems
/var/run/mountd.pid the pid of the currently running mountd
SEE ALSO nfsstat(1), exports(5), nfsd(8), portmap(8), showmount(8)HISTORY
The mountd utility first appeared in 4.4BSD.
