Hi,

I'm running an NFS server on Red Hat.
Connected to the Red Hat I have a Debian 
which I want to use as an NFS client.
Ping, Ftp, Telnet, ... all seems fine.
Mount and Umount is working well, however
I don't have access to the selected directory.
"Permission denied". The only way I can have
access to this directory is to set Red Hat 
/etc/exports to (rw,sync,no_root_squash).
Logging in as root on Debian I'm having access 
but that is not what I want. Why do I get 
Permission refused as regular user?

On another Red Hat I do have access as regular user.

rpcinfo -p on Debian

# rpcinfo -p

Thanks,

I think nfs requires u have same user id on both the system if u want to 
have full rights (very dangerous I think)

so u need to change /etc/passwd to have same user id. Redhat starts user 
id from 500 while Debian starts from 1000, I did manually changed the 
user id to have nfs access.
