Email? In any case, the web page is certainly clear that cygwin-apps (which you cross-posted this message to) is not the appropriate forum for this question. > I read your note about nfs-server, and i did as > follows: > mkdir /mnt/nfs > mount H:/nfs /mnt/nfs Whose note are you refering to? If you were running these commands under Cygwin, then you did nothing at all with nfs-server. You created a directory named /mnt/nfs under the Cygwin root, and then directed Cygwin to mount the Windows directory H:/nfs at /mnt/nfs. > Now all works as You said with small exception: > share on remote machine is not H:/nfs but /mnt/nfs. Assuming you exported /mnt/nfs via nfs-server, this is to be expected. NFS doesn't understand Windows drive notation. > This is not what You wanted I think. > I tried with mount //mycomputer/nfs /mnt/nfs. > It doesn't work becase remote party is not > able to browse directories nor I am able to > chmod on server side. > > I also notice that neither of my mounts are > visible through "ls /" command, although ls > /home works I'm unclear as to what you are trying to accomplish (or, rather, *how* you are trying to accomplish it). There is no NFS client for Cygwin; so if you are trying to export a directory from a Cygwin box, and mount it on another Cygwin box, that won't work at all. If you're looking for assistance, please respond your /etc/exports file, and a description of how you are trying to mount the exports on your remote machine. -Samrobb -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
