hello,
have a look into the manpage of "exports". the options
anonuid, anongid and all_squash
might be the answer you are looking for.
Thanks! That would help... but it would require reworking our NFS layout.
We currently have all the public shares alongside the private home directories
in a single mount (/home), so setting an anonymous user and/or group wouldn't
make sense. If we split the public shares out into different mounts, anonuid
and anongid would work quite well... so we might have to do that eventually.
I have a feeling we'd sooner move to Samba, though. :-)
