Solaris

I am facing a problem related to anon option in share command. As I am using this with NIS for central user Administration purpose. I also mounting the home directory of each user from central server. When I give the below command it allow me to give root access (means to create & delete files) to root user on that particular directory mounted on the client side but does not allow any other user to create any file or delete any file on that particular mount point

For e.g

On server side, server hostname is A
I give
# share -F nfs -o anon=0 /girish



On Client side, client's hostname is B
I give
#mount -F nfs A:/girish /mnt

Could anyone tell me where I am missing the things because of which I am not able to implement Cetral user administration as if I give the above commands then users will have read only access on their respective directories which are mounted from central server but I want to give read & write access

As per my understanding if I give the anon=0 it means every users on the client system will have read & write access on that particular directory which is mount from a server

Regards to all

anon=0 is saying that all unknown users will get uid of 0.
try forcing rw options:

Code:

share -F nfs -o rw anon=0 /girish

you may also want to do this on a per-host basis.

Code:

share -F nfs rw,root=host1:host2:host3 /girish

please see the man pages for share_nfs. this explains what you are looking for nicely: share_nfs(1M) - Make local NFS file systems available for mounting by remote systems (man pages section 1M: Maintenance Commands) - Sun Microsystems

Dear PUPP

I gave the following line also

share -F nfs -o rw,anon=0 /girish

But it doesn't help me as I still have only read only access to all users on the client system

I also know " root=host1" option as it only give read write access to root user on the client system

I am looking for a share comand which will help me to give read write access to all users on the client system where /girish directory from server A, is mounted on /mnt of the client system
