Summary: nfs mount not writable

2007-12-25 5:19:00

Dear managers,

thanks to

"Mike Demarco" <mdemarco at suncom.com>
"Saxon, Stuart" <Stuart.Saxon at centrica.co.uk>
<michael.schneider at calispera.com>

Mike suggested to do

Share -F nfs -o rw,root=<hostname or ipaddress of client>
/opt/FrontBase/Backups

This did not make a difference. I then followed the suggestion of Saxon
and Michael.

share -F nfs -o ro,anon=0 /export/install

This worked! Thanks a lot!

Regards,

Andreas
