[QUOTE="wlandymore, post: 1456343, member: 276615"] Hey guys, I just started using Mountain Lion and I'm trying to mount an NFS share via the command line. I've done it successfully with: mount -t nfs servername:/vol/NFSshare /Users/me/Desktop/NFS but when I go to it, it won't let me copy anything because it's trying to do this as my account and that doesn't have permissions on this share. In linux I would use something like: mount -t nfs /server/share /mnt/share -o username=root and then it would prompt me for a password for the root user but in Mac OSX that switch is just for options so how can I get it to mount that NFS share as another user besides the one I'm logged in as??
