rootSquash

You enable root squash by setting a user ID (UID) and group ID (GID) for the file system in the format UID:GID (for example, 365534:65534). The UID and GID values can range from 0 to 4294967294:

  • A non-zero value for UID and GID enables root squash. The UID and GID values can be different, but each must be a non-zero value.

  • A value of 0 (zero) for UID and GID indicates root, and therefore disables root squash.

When root squash is enabled, the user ID and group ID of a root user accessing the file system are re-mapped to the UID and GID you provide.
