Re: NFS MOUNT blues

Thanks Jim, Patrik

I do not know what changed on the Windows side but/and I tried changing
the ADDMFS's OPTION part from *DFT to a detailed form and include a
specific suid
I got from the Windows guy, (found no way to specify guid) . I also added
ver4 of NFS
like so:

OPTIONS('rw,suid=xxxx,retry=5,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,timeo=20,
retrans=5,
acregmin=30,acregmax=60,acdirmin=30,acdirmax=60,hard,async,sec=sys,
vers=3:2:4,cachetimeo=60,nocache') CCSID(1255 1255)

File are created in the Windows directory but access is denied
when trying to edit the authorities on one of the files I got
"The Permissions on TEST_AAA_01.xlsx are incorrectly ordered, which may
cause
some entries to be ineffective. to order the permissions correctly click
Reorder"
However, clicking the Reorder buttons and saving, fails with "Access is
denied"

The first thought that was are the UID/GID the same for the user profiles
on the new Win Server and IBM i. You might find it easier to change the IBM
i profiles than to change Windows. NFS uses UID for authentication and
authority so I would look there first.

?Hello guys

I could surely use some help with the following issue:

For about 12 years I routinely use several NFS mounts to write Excel,

PDF,

txt file from the i to
various directories on our windows file server.
(performing several ADDMFS in QSTRUP PGM)

However,
a week ago the A/M Windows file server was replaced/upgraded to
Windows Server 2022 and writes to those NFS mounted directories all

failed.

Our Net/Windows admin managed to tweak the NFS server on the Windows side
to let files be written but all files written to those NFS mounted
directories are created locked.
We get "Access denied" message when trying to open/copy them.

Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

Did you try to see if files written are closed properly by the generating
software on IBM i?

Did the NFS default version change, e. g. from 3 to 4 through the upgrade?
