By default an exported filesystem is writable. For security, the root user's identity is mapped to "nobody". Just put the name of the filesystem in /etc/exports and run "killall -HUP mountd" to force mountd to reread the file. Run "man exports" for full documentation on teh format of /etc/exports. -- Dan Nelson dnelson@allantgroup.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
