hi,
I try to export network file system from a PC


'tree'

to another pc 'frog'. The 'tree' installed with


PC2,

'frog' installed with RH 9.0, both are networked


under

the same domain, eg its.edu.au

here is /etc/exports script:

# export file system to frog
/home/user4 frog(rw,async,no_root_squash)

the nfs service started ok eg /sbin/service nfs restart
Shutting down NFS mountd:             [  OK  ]
Shutting down NFS daemon:             [  OK  ]
Shutting down NFS quotas:             [  OK  ]
Shutting down NFS services:           [  OK  ]
Starting NFS services:                [  OK  ]
Starting NFS quotas:                  [  OK  ]
Starting NFS daemon:                  [  OK  ]
Starting NFS mountd:                  [  OK  ]

the fstab line at frog is
tree:/home/user4   /mnt/tree  nfs  defaults 0 0
when I tried to mount this at frog with
mount /mnt/tree

I got a error message:
mount: RPC: Remote system error - No route to host

could sone help me fix this?

enable the nfs service on the machine tree.

You you also change the /etc/fstab line to read:
tree:/home/user4   /mnt/tree  nfs  defaults 1 2

Forgive me for not knowing the name for this icon on the gnome panel
(it's the one with a red hat).

RedHat -> System Settings -> Server Settings -> Services

You will be asked to enter roots password and it will then display a
list of services.  On the left side is a box which either has a check
mark or not in the box.  Go down the list till you find one that
says nfs, click on the box to set it to start at boot time.  At the top
of the Service configuration window is an icon that says Start, you
want to click on that icon to start the service now.

You now should be able to mount file systems from that machine.

Mike

Forgot to say that before you exit the Service configuration window, you need to save the changes.
