Ubuntu 22.04 - working with 'Permission Denied' scenarios When Accessing Mounted NFS Share

I'm maintaining legacy code that I've been researching this but I'm running Ubuntu 22.04 and trying to access an NFS share that I mounted from a CentOS 8 server. I've followed the typical steps for mounting the NFS share as follows: ```bash sudo mkdir /mnt/nfs_share sudo mount -t nfs 192.168.1.10:/exported/path /mnt/nfs_share ``` The mount command executes without any errors, but when I try to access the mounted directory, I receive a 'Permission Denied' behavior. The output of `ls -l /mnt/nfs_share` shows: ```bash ls: want to open directory '/mnt/nfs_share': Permission denied ``` On the server side, the NFS export is defined in `/etc/exports` as: ```bash /exported/path *(rw,sync,no_subtree_check) ``` I verified that the NFS service is running and the firewall is configured to allow NFS traffic. I also checked the ownership and permissions of the files in the NFS directory; they are owned by a user named `nfsuser` with 755 permissions. My local user is part of the `nfs` group, but I still need to access it. I've tried remounting the NFS share with the `-o rw` option, but that didn't change anything. Additionally, I confirmed that the `nfs-common` package is installed. How can I resolve this permission scenario? Is there a missing configuration in my NFS settings or something else I should check? My development environment is macOS. This issue appeared after updating to Bash latest. Any ideas how to fix this? How would you solve this?
