didn't notice that before ...
It has to be there. That tells the nfs server what it should be
sharing and to whom. See "man exports". I am wondering about why
there is "live" in the hostname. Is that on a live boot? Do you have
it backwards and you have the exports file on the client you're trying
to mount on.
.
The "live" is the result of a Fedora 30 L.live install which replaces a
failed server. I should have some new drives when UPS gets here Monday
and then I will start rebuilding from scratch. This has been a disaster,
I rely heavily on that server and the latest back-up is no good,
fortunately I still have some older stuff saved ... The disk quit
spinning up to normal speed, sounded like cranking an engine with low
battery. In desperation the last thing I tried was chilling it, it
sounded better but still would not make full speed so it appears my data
is lost.
Assuming you are trying to mount an external /home and the server is
192.168.2.128, the command on the client would be:
mount 192.168.2.128:/home /home
.
Adding to my misery, experimenting with some variations on the above
suggestion it looks like I wiped out the home directory in my main
computer, I am writing this on another one,your message disappeared and
I had nothing to respond to. Home appears to have been replaced with the
"etc,exports" from the server, not what I wanted to do! This computer,
Fedora 30 also, works and the
temporary NF serer is still there so I will continue with this .
