This is not the normal NFS root file system question. I want to export the root file system from machine A and import it on machine B. On B I would like the file system to be mounted as /mnt/A_root. There are some additional bits that make things more complicated: On A there are several filesystems (not root) that are mounted from B. But I don't need those file systems to be reexported (and I think thats not even possible). In my specific case A's root file system comes from LVM: /dev/VG/root --> / I tried putting this in A's /etc/exports file: / B(rw,sync) on B when I tried to mount this filesystem I got this error (after a rather long delay): mount: A:/: can't read superblock --------------------------------------- My goal is really this: I have several linux machines, from one machine I would like to be able to see all files on all machines. Maybe I could use samba to export the root file system from all machines - but I would like a more unix-ish solution if there is one. Thanks for any help. -Ram
