This how-to does not address any security issues. If you want to mount your shares at startup there is a good article here (). ' directories and be able to write to them. You should be able to see the three 'Shared.

Sudo apt-get update & sudo apt-get install portmap nfs-commonġ5. Nearly done! We just need to get NFS installed on the client. Replace 999 with the old UID and 1000 with the new UID before running.ġ3. To fix this on a M圜loud device, change to the /shares directory on the server and execute the following command: I.e.ĭrwxrwx-+ 3 999 mygroup 4096 DirectoryName Instead of being owned by a name, the owner will be the former UID which is now not associated with a user. You'll see them when you ls -al a directory. Reclaim Ownership of Your Files After Your UID Changes On the ServerįYI to those reading this who have to update the UID used on the NAS device because it didn't match the client UID:Īfter the id is updated, the files owned by the old uid will be orphaned. With thanks for pointing it out, Icreed noticed this section which I overlooked when writing the tutorial. It will take a few minutes to complete, especially if the server is scanning. Type in the UID in place of the 1002 and the user name janm that I needed. If nothing is printed out, the UID is not in use and we can continue. In the server's terminal window, typeĬat /etc/passwd|grep (In my case, we need to change janm's UID to 1002, so the command I used was First, we check that the UID we are going to change to is not in use on the server. Therefore, it is best to change the UID of the user on the NAS server to match that of the client. It is also easy to have them suddenly lose access to all the files that they own outside their home directory, as the command we are about to run only affects the files in the user's /home. Without going into details, it is easy to change the UID of a user in Linux. The UIDs must match for the user to have access to the private share. We need to ensure that the new user has the same UID on both the client and the server. NFS uses UIDs for authentication, not user names and passwords. You should get lines identical to these, but with the username you used in place of janm in my example:ġ2. Let's make sure the server is exporting the filesystems correctly by running: Now we need to restart the NFS server to make the changes take effect:ġ1. split as I can only use 8 images per post.
