nfsnobody ?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 




My daughter loaded a bunch of vacation pictures [du -h shows 5.7G} on to my Linux nfs server from her Mac portable via our wireless LAN last night.

I can see that the files are there but I can't view them directly, in fact I can only list directories part way through the tree and they are long directory names!

However although I can't view them as root either I can copy the files to this computer and view the images with gthumb. The owner changes in the copying process which appears to be what makes them accessible to me.

I don't quite understand how this all works, I've messed with owners and groups before when I observed this problem without success. I certainly don't want to copy all those files to this computer just to look at a few pix.

For example:

   [bobg@box9 ~]$ ll
   /mnt/srvr2/HOLIDAY-SanFRANCISCO-24Aug-3Sep-2009/04-Holiday-27-Aug-2009/
   total 108
   drwxrwxrwx. 2 nfsnobody nfsnobody 106496 2009-09-04 19:01
   00-ADJ-MuirWoods-Sausalito-Coastal-Redwoods


How do I deal with the owner "nfsnobody?"

Any help appreciated ...

Bob
