I'm having some problems mounting with NFS. The baffling thing is that the client machine (aidan) can happily mount two other directories from the server (miles), but consistently balks on this one. Here's what I start with on aidan:
aidan# mount /dev/hda3 on / type ext2 (rw) proc on /proc type proc (rw) miles:/home on /home type nfs (rw,addr=192.168.1.2) miles:/var/spool/mail on /var/spool/mail type nfs (rw,addr=192.168.1.2) and then I try to add one more: aidan# mount miles:/usr/local/java /mnt mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on miles:/usr/local/java, or too many mounted file systems I don't understand the message. Here's /etc/exports from the server: /home *.metamata.com(rw) /var/spool/mail *.metamata.com(rw) /cdrom *.metamata.com(rw) /usr/local/java *.metamata.com(rw) I tried adding this to /etc/exports on miles, and aidan was able to mount it fine: /tmp *.metamata.com(rw) Here are the permissions for /usr/local/java on the server: miles:~$ ls -ldg /usr/local/java drwxrws--- 14 root staff 1024 Feb 10 11:34 /usr/local/java/ I'e tried messing around wih the permissions, but nothing I did seemed to make any difference. I'm out of ideas, so any suggestions will be gratefully tried out. Thanks, Rob. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
