Unhappy NFS Permissions


I´ve mounted a vfat fs on a RedHat 7.0 and have exported the dir in my /etc/exports file, which has rw perms. After doing that I have /usr/sbin/exportfs -ra. The nfs services are all running 100%.

On the client side I´m accessing the info through a NT box with unix utils which is also fine.

The problem I have is that I´m able to access the files but not write to the disk.

I´ve also noticed in my /proc/fs/nfs/exports file that it the client pc has ro perms and there is noway in chaning this.

I´ve also though it might be that root is owner of the mount therefor explaining why only root has access and the rest hasn´t, how do you change the perms on the mount so that all can access the fs.

Thanking all for there input
