Hi all, I am not sure this is the problem of NAS (nfs) or the File system, I am sending my problem to this list though. If this is wrong list for my post , then I do aplogise. Here is the problem in brief: - The server is rhel4. - One file system (NAS) has been exported. - The file system has been mounted in the server. The mount point is like as nas2.xxx.org:/dev/deg/temp /apps/deg/dev - I am doing cd /apps/deg/dev and , creating some file say xx. File is being created withthe the file permission 644 . Then I am changing the file permission as 444 as root. After that when if I try to change the permission of the xx file back to 644 or anything , it is giving "permission denied". I can't do any updates on xx file. - Same type of process I am doing on a simililar type of NAS mounted file system , it is perfectly alright. If anyone gives me some pointers that will be really appreciated. Thanks in advance
I take it you've checked you are not using root squash NFS mount option.
