I have an opensolaris nfs server serving a share to my gentoo box. The mount point is set as owner:group of my user (reader). Also has the set-gid bit set. ls -ld /projects drwxr-sr-x 2 reader wheel 48 Jun 24 07:08 /projects And the mount settings in /etc/fstab (zfs is the hostname of the opensolaris server) zfs:/projects /projects nfs noauto,users,exec,dev 0 0 With those settings my user or root can mount it. When its mounted the permissions change to this: ls -ld /projects drwxr-sr-x+ 13 reader man 14 Jul 25 09:47 /projects Whats with the `man' group? Also, when mounted I find when I try to copy somethihng with the -a option, which tries to maintain any permission settings. It causes an error warning... (although the copy is done). cp -a file file1 cp: preserving permissions for `file1': Operation not supported And the files permissions end up: ls -l file* -rw-r--r--+ 1 reader man 223962 Jul 26 15:56 file -rw-r--r--+ 1 reader reader 223962 Jul 26 15:56 file1 Is there some way to set it up so that permissions can be copied? Also to alow the set-gid setting to work?
