nfs questions!!!

hi...

further research hasn't solved the issue.

i have the server nfs
  /etc/exports
     /college		192.168.1.*(rw)

i have the client nfs/mount
   mount -o rw  192.168.1.52:/college	/college

when i add a file to the share as client1, the client and the nfs server can
edit the file with no problem. the other clients can't!! in fact, the file
attributes are changed/set to some very large number...

if i go to the nfs server, and i  make the changes to the file
(chmod,chgrp,chown) then the settings are somewhat seen by the other
clients, and each client can then edit the given files on the nfs share...

i would have thought that there should be a way to set up the nfs, so that
client1 can create/add a file, and that client2 can edit the file, and vice
versa....

searching via google seems to indicate that this should work, but i can't
see how to get it to perform.

thanks

ps. yeah, there are read/write privs on the nfs mount for the clients
    and yeah, the user is the same on each machine

Do you have a user with the same name and password on both hosts?
Does said user have write permissions on the directory?
Is this root? Then you need a change to your exports line.

/video  10.10.10.0/24(rw,no_root_squash)

That is the line I use for my mythbox.
