Meikel:
Nope.
Fedora /home/meikel user=meikel group=meikel
Centos /home/sysadmin/disk1/home_meikel user=sysadmin group=sysadmin
I could create user:group=meikel:meikel on CentOS 8 if required, but
as sysadmin:sysadmin was already there I thought I can use that user.
As a general rule, it's easier to do networked storage (and debugging
is far more straightforward), when users are the same user on both
sides of the network.
I have a NAS device which seems to go to great pains to make every file
on it owned by one user, yet make all the networked traffic go through
some bizarro SMB handler to filter ownership. If you want to use NFS
in a traditional manner, you have to keep SSHing in and chown user's
directories back to themselves any time it reboots. About the only
other workaround is to put all your files in the public directories
where everyone can do anything with them.
