The following /etc/exports file works fine for us:
/local/src -network 198.133.164 -mask 255.255.255.0 -maproot root:wheel
/u/ftp -network 198.133.164 -mask 255.255.255.0 -maproot root:wheel
/tmp -network 198.133.164 -mask 255.255.255.0 -maproot root:wheel
and yet this one produces errors:
/local/src -network 198.133.164 -mask 255.255.255.0 -maproot root:wheel
/u/ftp -network 198.133.164 -mask 255.255.255.0 -maproot root:wheel
/u/tmp -network 198.133.164 -mask 255.255.255.0 -maproot root:wheel
even though /u/tmp is a perfectly fine directory on the /u filesystem. But
we get errors like these in the syslog:
Dec 11 15:27:57 metrics mountd[67]: /u/tmp: Can't change attributes
(already exported?)
Dec 11 15:27:57 metrics mountd[67]: Bad exports list line /u/tmp
-network 198.133.164 -mask 255.255.255.0 -maproot root
Same thing happened when I attempted to export both /u/ftp and /u/ftpx at
the same time. Does mountd only allow one export per filesystem? Or does
it only allow one export with the same base directory?
Baffled in Waterloo,
