Unable to write to NFS mounted directory
Hi,

I have exported a few nfs mounts from one server to the nfs clients.
This is my nfs server dfstab :

Code:
# cat /etc/dfs/dfstab
#       place share(1M) commands here for automatic execution
#       on entering init state 3.
#
#       share [-F fstype] [ -o options] [-d "<text>"] <pathname>
#       .e.g,
#       share  -F nfs  -o rw=engineering  -d "home dirs"  /home
share -F nfs -o rw=root -d "UMSCRIPTS" /UM_SCRIPTS
share -F nfs -o rw=l17cmsp01,rw=l17cmsp02,rw=l17cmsp03,rw=l17bip01,rw=l17bip02,rw=root,rw=bscs -d "bscswork_bi" /bscswork_bi
share -F nfs -o rw=l17cmsp01,rw=l17cmsp02,rw=l17cmsp03,rw=l17bip01,rw=l17bip02,rw=root,rw=bscs -d "bscswork" /bscswork

#

However, in the client, for eg, l17cmsp01, I am not able to write to the directory /bscswork_bi. It is already properly added to /etc/fstab.

The error is :
Code:
bscscx01.l17cmsp0> (/bscswork_bi/WORK/UMOBILE)
$ touch abc
touch: abc cannot create

How do I correct/edit this error?

mount.nfs

MOUNT.NFS(8)						      System Manager's Manual						      MOUNT.NFS(8)

NAME

       mount.nfs, mount.nfs4 - mount a Network File System

SYNOPSIS

       mount.nfs remotetarget dir [-rvVwfnsh ] [-o options]

DESCRIPTION

       mount.nfs is a part of nfs(5) utilities package, which provides NFS client functionality.

       mount.nfs  is  meant to be used by the mount(8) command for mounting NFS shares. This subcommand, however, can also be used as a standalone
       command with limited functionality.

       remotetarget is a server share usually in the form of servername:/path/to/share.  dir is the directory on which the file system	is  to	be
       mounted.

       Under  Linux  2.6.32  and  later  kernel  versions, mount.nfs can mount all NFS file system versions.  Under earlier Linux kernel versions,
       mount.nfs4 must be used for mounting NFSv4 file systems while mount.nfs must be used for NFSv3 and v2.

OPTIONS

       -r     Mount file system readonly.

       -v     Be verbose.

       -V     Print version.

       -w     Mount file system read-write.

       -f     Fake mount. Don't actually call the mount system call.

       -n     Do not update /etc/mtab.	By default, an entry is created in /etc/mtab for every mounted file system. Use this option to skip making
	      an entry.

       -s     Tolerate sloppy mount options rather than fail.

       -h     Print help message.

       nfsoptions
	      Refer to nfs(5) or mount(8) manual pages.

NOTE

       For further information please refer nfs(5) and mount(8) manual pages.

FILES

       /etc/fstab	 file system table
