[opensuse] Can uids be mapped?



-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1



Hi,

Assume a filesystem A in which "user" has uid 500.

Assume another filesystem B in which "user" has uid 1000

They belong to different suse installs in the same machine.


Is there a method to mount B so that files with uid=500 appear to have uid=1000?

NFS perhaps? I haven't seen it in the manual.


Changing the physical uids is not valid: that would render the linux system of filesystem A inoperable.
