I'm not sure what machine runs the NFS (and the administrator is not present right now), I do know, however, that I was able to nfs mount this machine with my other RedHat machine, so there is no problem with the Linux nfs suppert, and I didn't do anything special to mount it (such as contacting the administrator of the NFS server), so there is no problem with /etc/exports. This is done in the installation of a new hamm machine , and I did install the nfs module. Everything seems fine, the only problem is that it doesn't work...
I'd like to hear some suggestions, thanks, Liran. > -- > Nathan Norman > MidcoNet - 410 South Phillips Avenue - Sioux Falls, SD 57104 > mailto://[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.midco.net > finger [EMAIL PROTECTED] for PGP Key: (0xA33B86E9) --- http://www.math.tau.ac.il/~liranz/ -- Unsubscribe? mail -s unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] < /dev/null
