hi ya donno the current implementation ... but in the old days... hosts.allow is checked before hosts.deny ...
in the files below.... everything is allowed... never gets a chance for checking deny .... and nothing is deny anyway since its commented out --------- sometimes ... in /etc/exports... it doesn't like *.foo.com(options) and prefers a.b.c.d/255.255.255.0(options) format instead no a.b.c.0 nore a.b.c.* nor *.foo.com c ya alvin On Tue, 16 Apr 2002, David Smead wrote: > Osamu, > > I read the reference manual but didn't find anything that addresses the > errors I get, which are: > > knuth:/etc/init.d# /etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server start > Starting NFS kernel daemon: nfsdnfssvc: Function not implemented > mountd. > Exporting directories for NFS kernel daemon...feynman.amplepower.com:/: > Function not implemented > done. > > This is after running dselect and downloading all packages and configuring > them.
