Dear nfs team,

I am author of Autodir and for more info please visit http://www.intraperson.com/autodir/.

Autodir is performing as expected with user level software like ssh, smtp servers etc.

But when NFS is used to mount Autodir maintained directories, NFS mounting them perfectly but it is not allowing to enter into those nfs mounted directories -- Permission denied.

I did not hack NFS kernel code to give you patch myself. Any solutions?

Thanks in advance.

Regards
ramana

"man 5 nfs". Read all about the "no_root_squash" export option.

Cheers,

Sorry. Should be "man 5 exports"...

No.

It does not work when whole /home exported like this.
/home 127.0.0.1(rw)

Becuase NFS does not see any dirs within /home dir because of the way Autodir works.

It works when individual home dirs exported like this.
/home/t1000 127.0.0.1(rw)

Probably because user "nobody" does not have access to /home on the server. RTFM about root squashing...

I appreciate your time. You can not solve it from man page.
