I rebuilt my file server from bare metal today (fedora core 3). Everything is running well and samba is working (THANK GOD), but for some dumb reason, I cannot get write permissions on my home directory export from the file server The /etc/exports file looks like this /home 192.168.0.1/255.255.255.0 (synch,no_root_squash,rw) And here is the /etc/fstab file from the webserver # This file is edited by fstab-sync - see 'man fstab-sync' for details /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 / ext3 defaults 1 1 LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2 none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0 none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 none /proc proc defaults 0 0 none /sys sysfs defaults 0 0 /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01 swap swap defaults 0 0 192.168.0.5:/home /home nfs hard,rw,nosuid /dev/hdb /media/cdrom auto pamconsole,ro,exec,noauto,managed 0 0 /dev/fd0 /media/floppy auto pamconsole,exec,noauto,managed 0 0 [root@srvweb-02 ~]# When ever I try to create a document on the shared drive (/home) from the webserver, I get a permission denied error -- I can see it, and see the documents there, but I cannot access put new documents there (which I need to be able to do) I have chmoded the home folder (temporarially) to 777 perms, and I can read and write to it from the samba share (as I should be able to do) but not from nfs I have a suspicion that I have done something stupid and dumb, but I don't know what it is Any suggestions you can offer would be greatly helpful TIM Timothy A.
