Try it! > http://webhosting.yahoo.com/ps/sb/ Hi Robert, Just a few thoughts on this. I hope you are aware of security implications of using "no_root_squash". You may have tried this, but just incase, the rw size should be set in fstab to "rsize=8192,wsize=8192". Is there any nfs version diffs. Since the Solaris box can mount and copy from RH 7.2, there does not appear to be a gnu vs Sun conflict (strange really:) Have a look at fstab in the 2 linux systems, see if the anything is different. -- Pete Nesbitt, rhce -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
