When mounting file systems with NFS it is vital to have the same
user names with matching UID numbers, as well as the same group
names with matching GID on both systems. Unfortunately this is not
normally the case and the result is that you see strange user names
and group names assigned to files. What you have to do is update the
users and groups to have the same UID and GID numbers on both
systems. You only need to update the users and groups you are using
(e.g. mythtv).<br>
You also need to change user and group ownership on all affected
files. While doing this shut down any processes using them.<br>
