[svlug] NFS mount problem

Hello everybody,

I have a problem with mounting an NFS share.
I have a NetGear ReadyNAS 1100 with NFS enabled and user configured.
The user's UID is set to 2001.

I am trying to mount the share using:
mount  -t nfs 192.168.1.8:/test1 /mnt/test1
and get a "mount: 192.168.1.8:/test failed, reason given by server: Permission denied".

This is ok, because the NAS is configured to require a user ID.

But when I try to add a user ID by doing this:
mount  -t nfs -o uid=2001 192.168.1.8:/test1 /mnt/test1
then I get "unknown nfs mount parameter: uid=2001"

This happens on both redhat 9 and fedora 6 systems...

Any idea what is wrong?

Thanks,

MARK
