I'm starting to get a little frustrated...

I'm trying to get readonly access to a NSF share that resides on a linux host from OSX 10.3. Here are the permissions on the linux box:

[/mnt/boyle_hdd1/]
patrick@boyle > ls -l
total 5
drwxr-xr-x 7 heather users 184 2004-12-29 08:53 h_netstorage
drwxr-xr-x 9 patrick users 248 2005-01-21 04:20 media
-rwx------ 1 patrick users 533 2004-12-27 05:37 mencoder_script
drwxr-xr-x 23 patrick users 1064 2005-01-30 00:14 p_netstorage

The parameters on the share for the mac's IP are ro,root_squash,sync.

I am able to acess the share from other linux boxes on the lan.

The userIDs between the mac and linux boses do NOT match, but from my understanding of the permissions, that shouldn't matter (but what the hell do I know, maybe it does).

I'm typing in the nfs://192.168.122.111/mnt/boyle_hdd1/media/ into the network dialog...

Why the !@#$ am I getting an error that says I don't have permissions? Am I mistaken with that userID thing? It's going to be a serious pain in the ass to change the linux userIDs... I tried using the networkid utility to change the ids on the mac, but I started getting some funky results (classic wouldn't start... users becoming adming...).

Any thoughts, comments?




EDIT: the trick is to add the 'insecure' option to the host configuration. See this for details.
