hi, I Am trying to understand how nfs file systems get mounted. I run woody on a 386, a friend has just moved a box over to my office, and I want to be able to mount a directory from this box (which runs redhat 7.3, I think) on my own. I made sure the nfs daemon was running on his box, edited the /etc/exports file to include my ip address and the appropriate directories, and then tried to mount the file system from my box. I get the following error:
anarres:/# mount -t nfs 128.100.34.8:/home/matt /racesci/matt mount: RPC: Port mapper failure - RPC: Unable to receive is the problem with my box or the other one? I went through a bit of trouble, turning the various daemons on and so forth; I think it's working, but I don't have access to a third box, so I don't know. any help is appreciated. thanks loads, m -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
