I have the following entry in /etc/exports /dose 192.168.1.11(rw, no_root_squash) ----- NOTE the IP address in the /etc/exports file on the _server_ should be the IP address of the _client_ that is authorized to connect. mount -t nfs 192.168.1.11:/dose /mydose ----- NOTE the IP address passed to the mount command should be the IP of the _server_ that you're mounting from. So if my server is 192.168.1.1 and my client is 192.168.1.2 The /etc/exports file on the server would look like: /foo 192.168.1.2(rw, no_root_squash) And the mount command on the client would be Mount -t nfs 192.168.1.1:/foo /foo I recommend using a naming service such as nis or dns and defining each machine in the other machines hosts file so you can map by name. Also, if you turn on the automounter (/etc/init.d/amd start) you'll be able to soft mount (cd /net/server/foo) the filesystems once you have a naming service or each machine defined in the others hosts file. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
