Well, it looks as though I have it working, over an Ethernet link anyway. There's now no /mnt/nfs with fsid=0, with the portage tree and the packages directory mounted below it. This is /etc/exports on the i5: /var/db/repos/gentoo wstn.prhnet(rw,sync,insecure,nohide,no_subtree_check,all_squash,anonuid=250,anongid=250) /var/cache/packages wstn.prhnet(rw,sync,insecure,nohide,no_subtree_check,all_squash,anonuid=250,anongid=250) Those are just two long lines. Breaking them seemed to cause problems. You see that there's no intermediate mount point. The last two weeks' work has left me unsure of the integrity of the i5, so I'm going to install a fresh new system and save it before tackling the wireless link. Then I may be able to coil up that great long Ethernet cable and stow it. Many thanks to all those who offered help. -- Regards, Peter.
