Hi! I have an old machine running FC1 and my main machine running FC5.
I am on a local network, and tried to set up nfs between the two. For
some reason, though, they seem invisible. I used the redhat tool on
the FC1 machine to set up the server, and even restarted the
/etc/init.d/nfs file. On the FC5 machine (client), I have tried with
nautilus, but it just doesn't see the other computer. I even tried
killing the firewalls on both machines. I have been able to get two
mandriva 2005 machines to work flawlessly. I haven't changed any
settings with the router or anything. I set the host to * in
/etc/exports (like in mandriva), and had an almost identical rest of
the file. Mandriva, though, had a tool to find shares on the network,
where fedora just has nautilus. What am I doing wrong?

OK, so what does the command:
showmount -e [fc5machine]
give you when you run it as root on the FC1 machine? Obviously you will
want to replace [fc5machine] with the actual name or address of the FC5
machine.
