I'm trying to setup a few diskless Linux machines using an OpenBSD 4.0
machine to provide NFS, and two questions have arisen:

First, if I edit a line in /etc/exports, does it suffice to send
SIGHUP to mountd on the server and remount the filesystem on the
affected clients?  If not, what are the proper actions to take?

Second, should the following line in /etc/exports allow IP
192.168.1.34 to edit files as root in /edgy-root?

    /edgy-root -maproot=root -network=192.168.1 -mask=255.255.255.0

I've only had success when I replace ``-network=192.168.1
-mask=255.255.255.0'' with ``192.168.1.34'', but my tests may be
invalidated by the answer to question #1...

(I realize there are security risks implied above, but the machines
are just for fun/experimentation, so those are low priority until I
can get things working reliably.)

Thanks.
