First It's just me although I do have a couple of accounts to allow separate e-mail addresses for a few things. The mistake I was making was form the RH admin guide I was taking the word server to be required to indicate to the system that it was a remote file system (where you have used remotesys) Had the guide used the same example I might have caught on. They give the manual mount as. mount shadowman.example.com:/misc/export /misc/local Then jumped to server:/usr/local/pub /pub nfs size=8192,wsize=8192,timeo=14,intr for the fstab.
