NFS write permissions error


I've created an NFS share on one server to another (client) server and successfully mounted the folder (let's say /home/user/public_html/examplefolder) to the second (client) server.

I've logged in to the FTP account on the second (client) server and I'm attempting to write folders/files into the mounted NFS location (/home/user/public_html/examplefolder), but I get a permission denied error.

If I ssh into the client server as root I have full access to write into the NFS mounted location, so I know it has to be a user permission type of error.

I'm running CentOS 5 on both servers.


Solution

  • I ended up doing a full user and group modification to get the users and groups on the client server to match up with the original server.
