Hi All,

I hoping someone can help me get my NFS working properly. I don't know why I'm having little issues... Overall, NFS is working, therefore, the problem may not be with NFS. I can ssh to remote nodes and view NFS shared directories (/home). Here is the problem, when on a node and I open a file using vim then exit I get the following error:

Code:

Viminfo file is not writable: /home/"MyUserID"/.viminfo

The weird thing is if I "vi /home/"myUserID"/.viminfo" (still on the node. Note, /home is a NFS directory) then exit (no error), moreover now when I open a file using vim on the same node the error doesn't occur. However, the error comes back the next time I log on.

Also, for whatever reason I can't set up passwordless ssh. I have done this successfully in the past on FC8.

For passwordless ssh, I have done/check the following:

Code:

ssh-keygen -t rsa (on remote node)
mv ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
set (sshd_config):
RSAAuthentication yes
PubkeyAuthentication yes
chmod 700 ~/.ssh

I don't really care about the vim error, but I need to get passwordless ssh working. However, I think the problems are related. It seems like my home directory is not being read/processed upon log on (Again, /home is a NFS directory on the server).

FYI, I'm using FC14 (64 bit)

Thanks for any help,
Mike

Are you sure you have the same UID on both servers?
I don't see any other reason

Thanks for the reply. I get the same infomation back when I excute the "id" command on both the server and the nodes.
