Package: nfs-common
Version: 1:1.1.2-6lenny2

I tried to set up nfsv4 between two lenny-installations where users have
different UIDs.

Server: User "xyz" has UID 1000
Client: User "xyz" has UID 501

/etc/exports (server) contains:

/exports with options: rw,fsid=0,insecure,no_subtree_check,sync
/exports/home with optione: rw,nohide,insecure,no_subtree_check,sync


/etc/default/nfs-common (server+client)
NEED_STATD=no
STATDOPTS=
NEED_IDMAPD=yes
NEED_GSSD=

/etc/idmapd.conf is identical on server+client

mount server:/home /mnt/ -t nfs4

"ls -l /mnt" translates user and group properly.
"touch /mnt/xxx" creates a file with UID 501 on the server / should be
UID 1000

What did you believe that when user xyz writes to the mounted directory
it would not end up as belonging to UID 501 on the server?

Cheers

I expect the server to convert it to UID 1000. In consequence during the
next access it would be remapped to UID 501 on the server.
What else is the concept of idmapd?
