C-34 Compaq TaskSmart N2400 Administration Guide
When I attempt to share out a directory, an error
message is displayed saying that a parent or
child directory is already shared out, and it will
not let me share this directory.
This behavior is expected for SFU NFS.
If a higher-level (parent) directory is already shared out, you cannot share out
a subdirectory, because direct mounting of subdirectories is already supported.
The correct usage is to mount the full path from the parent share. For example,
if directory "/Data" is already shared out, you cannot share out
"/Data/Accounting/Fred." You can already directly mount
"/Data/Accounting/Fred" just by sharing out "/Data." .
If a lower-level (child) directory is already shared out, you cannot share out
the parent (higher-level) directory. See the previous discussion about parent
directories. SFU NFS already supports sharing out child directories from a
parent. To share out this higher-level directory, you need to disable all lower
directory shares, and then enable this directory for NFS sharing
I can map multiple Windows users to a single
UNIX user. However, when I try to map several
UNIX users to a single Windows users I get an
error.
This behavior is expected. Services for UNIX does not support mapping
multiple UNIX users to a single Windows user.
The server shows a mount for a client that is
logged out.
Did the client unmount before logging out? The client must log on again,
unmount the share, and then log off. The client can also restart the machine to
break the mount.
NOTE: Only the root on a UNIX system can unmount NFS shares unless the UNIX system
administrator has built a script or other tool to allow other users to unmount NFS shares in
root user context.
