Is it possible for users (non-root) to mount NFS exports? I seem to be able to mount_nfs using sudo, but not as a regular user. I actually want to allow regular users to mount the NFS share from another machine/OS (MacOSX), but since I couldn't get a regular user to do the mount just on the local machine, I thought I'd start with this problem first. With these settings on OpenBSD 4.0, (generic+autoraid) /etc/rc.conf.local lockd=YES portmap=YES nfs_server=YES /etc/exports /home -alldirs -ro -network=10.0.1 -mask=255.255.255.0 /etc/sysctl.conf kern.usermount=1 For example logged is as usera, on machine 10.0.1.201 (the server) uid=1000(usera) gid=1000(usera) groups=1000(usera), 0(wheel), 10(users), 20(staff) $ mount_nfs 10.0.1.201:/home/usera/dir2share /home/usera/private/mnt fails with "mount_nfs: bad MNT RPC: RPC: Authentication error; why = Client credential too weak" but $ sudo mount_nfs 10.0.1.201:/home/usera/dir2share /home/usera/private/mnt works fine Any help would be appreciated. More details: I've tried to adhere to: man mount "A mount point node must be an existing directory for a mount to succeed (except in the special case of /, of course). Only the superuser may mount file systems unless kern.usermount is nonzero (see sysctl(8)), the special device is readable and writeable by the user attempting the mount, and the mount point node is owned by the user attempting the mount." by setting: drwxr-xr-x root wheel /home drwxr-xr-x usera usera /home/usera drwxr-xr-x usera usera /home/usera/dir2share drwxr-xr-x usera usera /home/usera/private drwxr-xr-x usera usera /home/usera/private/mnt Thanks
