http://askubuntu.com – what I am trying to do is to mount NFS server in read only mode. I downloaded an NFS client (Nekodrive) for windows and was able to see the content without any credentials. Now when i try to use sudo mount viviane.scitech.qut.edu.au:/pub/nfs /mnt/viviane It gives out an error message which is acces denied by the server. even though I used -r option it did not change anything. I cannot do anything on server side as I do not own it. So what exactly is required (HowTos)

Stories similar to Permission denied by NFS server

I have my nfs server running on 192.168.1.99 box, and I have my /etc/exports configured using

/myshare 192.168.1.*(rw,sync,no_subtree_check)

I was able to mount nfs from 192.168.1.50 client box.

However I was unable to mount from 192.168.1.49!

Hello,

Forgive me if I have targeted the wrong OS here, but I beleive 50% of the problem is with Ubuntu at least.

Situation: I have a Ubuntu client which fails to mount an NFS share on a CentOS 6.2 server. Because the error relates to access of some sort, I added other-writable to the mode and it looks like "drwxr-xrwx".

I get a permission denied error when attempting to mount a shared file from a server. It was setup with guest access ticked so am not sure what is wrong. When the password prompt appears I just press return for blank:

Code: usb@usb:~$ sudo mount -t smbfs //192.168.0.9/Videos /mnt/Videos -o username=guest Password: mount error(13): Permission denied Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.

I have installed NFS server and Client on separate machines. The problem is when i mount the shared directory on client side using command

mount server_addr:server_dir client_dir

But it gives an error saying that

Though I have given read-write (rw) permissions to the client by updating /etc/exports file in s

CIFS Mount Error 12.04 38 weeks 6 hours ago

I'm trying to CIFS mount a directory on a Windows server to a Ubuntu Apache server to act as a graphics server for a development test server for images. Im running into two separate errors, while using the same argument, but different usernames. I thought maybe my account was preventing me from mounting it but our Admin account is running into the same issue.

On an Ubuntu 12.10 server, I created an Ubuntu cloud lxc container.

I have a shared directory on another machine but I can't get it to mount as a samba share.

The permission denied doesn't say where/which permission is denied. Is it on the remote on on the local machine?

I have a Windows Server 2003 machine which i store most of my files on. Occasionally it becomes unavailable and the shares shows up as zero byte files created 1970-01-01 01:00. If i try to mount a share (mount -t cifs) I get a permission denied error. All of a sudden it works again or if I don't have the patience to wait it out and do a reboot or log out/in again it works right away.

OK so I've got two samba shares that I'm trying to get mounted. Both are being shared from the same Windows 7 machine. One mounts with out problems, the other one complains about permission denied.
