- I have found that you need to add a proxy for each user that is trying to
- write a file to that disk. The nobody proxy is good enough for the mount but
- when you try to write a file then it needs the specific user access (who you
- are logged in as on the Unix box). This is what I found I need to do....any
- other more appropriate answers??
