Re: [trinity-users] Where do I find the most expert nfs help?

But a "cd /sshnet/shop", after using Niks's example sshfs command, a mount point I created, then chown'd to me, works just fine. Since I also have an ssh -Y session into each of those machines, if I need to muck around out of my home dir, sudo is always available. To summerize, I added these lines to /etc/fstab: shop.coyote.den:/ /sshnet/shop fuse.sshfs defaults,idmap=user 0 0 lathe.coyote.den:/ /sshnet/lathe fuse.sshfs defaults,idmap=user 0 0 GO704.coyote.den:/ /sshnet/GO704 fuse.sshfs defaults,idmap=user 0 0 Which I suspect can be nuked. but there it is. The mount points were created and chown'd to me. Now I will see if the fstab entries are surplus by doing the same thing to each of the other 3 machines currently alive on this local network. Then I can hopefully reach across the net from any machine to any machine, which was my target in the first place. According to my results of doing the mkdir yadda, followed by the sshfs login, it works just fine on GO704. I can look at /home/gene on this machine from the ssh -Y session into that machine. Two more machines to go... But first, clean up the mess in my fstab. Oh, and sshmenu is broken, needs a ruby dependency the deb didn't list. I don't have a heck of a lot of ruby stuffs in use here. I'll nuke it. Nik's example sshfs command line was then executed once for each of the mount points. Humm, on GO704 it all works, and here it all works BUT the sshfs session converts the individual subdir used from gene:gene to root:root. If thats permanent it will be a problem. So I go over to the ssh -Y session into the lathe and do the mkdir tapdance again. But while it will connect to both this machine and GO704, it will not connect to "shop", "connection reset by peer", so once again that shop machine is being a spoiled brat. Doing that same tapdance on machine "shop" works as expected. Now why can't lathe access shop? gene@lathe:~$ sshfs gene@shop:/ /sshnet/shop read: Connection reset by peer However, gcode written for the lathe (only a 2 axis machine) is not usable on shop or GO704 which are 4 axis milling machines, so that is not a showstopper loss. Besides, I can go to the other machine and do the file copies if I need it bad enough. What does bother me though is that if the ownership of /sshnet/machinename being changed to root is permanent, that will mean I have to do the "sudo chown -R /sshnet" dance on 4 machines when they have been rebooted. That is the only way I know to get around the target machines asking me for a non-existent root pw. And has been so for at least 5 years, the level of neglect seems rampant. The manpages haven't been touched in 9 years. But till now I have used it if I could because there wasn't a usable alternative. I long ago got tired of the constant perms fixing that CIFS needs, too many roots in the M$ world. Many many thanks to both Nik and Richard for supplying the clues and examples that made it work . And to Timothy for pointing out that it might be a problem with rpcbind. But yesterdays huge update included rpcbind, which all machines have now been updated, and that did not fix nfs.
