Hi Matevz, What kind of security does xrootd.t2.ucsd.edu require? I never tried anything other than non-security or "sss". But it may work with any security if that the person issuing the following command and the person in uid= are the same, and there is a X509 proxy there (for GSI). sudo xrootdfs /home/matevz/tmpm -o rw,uid=matevz,rdr=root://xrootd.t2.ucsd.edu//store The trailing / isn't needed though it is not harmful. After this is done, take a look at /var/log/messages and see if there is the same # of data servers listed there compare to the output of xrd xrootd.t2.ucsd.edu locateall /store Also, see if you can do a 'df' (and df -a) -- Wei Yang | [log in to unmask] | 650-926-3338(O) On Oct 17, 2012, at 8:21 PM, Matevz Tadel wrote: > Hi Wei, > > On 10/16/12 16:12, Yang, Wei wrote: >> suppost you have all.export=/cms, you can do >> >> xrootdfs /mnt/xrootd.t2.ucsd.edu -o rw,uid=daemon,rdr://xrootd.t2.ucsd.edu//cms >> >> this works if xrootd.t2.uscd.edu is a redirector, or if this is a standalone xrootd on port 1094 (it will not work if it is a standalone xrootd on other ports) > > OK, got it somewhat working :) ... three things I observed: > > 1. mount point must be an absolute path (this took me while); > > 2.
