Mounting remote NFS shares, you will probably find that you are not running nfsd, just the portmapper and locking services that enable you to [semi]reliably mount remote nfs shares. The scripts starting them will probably be in /etc/rcX.d (where X is your runlevel) and be called something like nfslock and portmap, fam I think is called from xinetd (/etc/xinetd.d) -- Steve. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
