- Subject: New to Cygwin - Problems with Cygwin NFS
Hi,
I've been trying to configure Cygwin NFS running on a Windows 2003
Server machine (machine: testwin2k3) to export directories so that I can
eventually use these directories as home directories on Solaris
machines.
I got Cygwin and Cygwin NFS installed, and somewhat working, but am
having problems with the uids of files being created on the NFS
directories.
On my test Solaris system, I have a test user, "jim1", with uid=1000 and
gid=1000. In Cygwin NFS, I have /etc/exports configured to export
"/hometest/jim1" to machine with IP address 192.168.0.201 (for now):
/hometest/jim1 192.168.0.201(rw,...)
I was finally able to get "su - jim1" on the Solaris machine to work,
and I can see that it has indeed mounted the directory that I exported
from Cygwin NFS.
However, if I try to create a file after "su - jim1", the uid on the
file is set to nobody (uid=18?). The gid seems to be ok, it's just the
uid on the files that seems to be wrong.
I've tried to add a "map_static=/etc/nfs/server.map-jim1":
/hometest/jim1 192.168.0.201(rw,map_static=/etc/nfs/server.map-jim1)
where the /etc/nfs/server.map-jim1 file has:
uid 18 1000
gid 1000 1000
uid 1000 1000
gid 1000 1000
but, to no avail.
I've also tried setting "anonuid=1000,anongid=1000", but got the same
results.
I've restarted the 3 Cygwin services in between each server.map and
exports change, but no matter what I've tried :(...
Can anyone tell me how I can get Cygwin NFS to set the uid on the files
properly, to uid=1000?
Thanks in advance,
Jim
