We have a situation where a user on one end of the country would like to mount their files from a supercomputer at the other end of the country. The workstation the file system is being mounted on is in another domain altogether so the UIDs and GIDs are not the same. Thus, the user's uid on the supercomputer is different from their workstation uid. When the user's file system on the supercomputer is mounted, that user does not own the files because the uid's and gid's are not the same. Has anyone looked into this problem? Tried to solve it? Solved it? etc... for both client and server?
