Top Forums UNIX for Beginners Questions & Answers Setting UID and GID for shared folder using NFS method in Linux system Post 303013763 by Scrutinizer on Tuesday 27th of February 2018 11:02:36 PM

Hi, can't you make user Joe known on server A ? With this approach you remove security and make everyone uid 500 with gid 500 when writing or reading from the NFS share.

That said, for this to even work, it seems to me the export should be reversed, so server B should export to server A.
