just yesterday, i was demonstrating NFS to a class of people running F7 on their laptops, and i set up a simple NFS export on one system, and asked everyone else to run "showmount -e" against that server. only one system in the class got output from showmount, although everyone could ping the server properly. i found this just a bit odd, and spent a few minutes trying to figure out what was happening, to no avail. these were 64-bit F7 installs, and i didn't get a chance to see if a 32-bit install would work any differently. so, is there some reason i would have seen this behaviour? the showmounts didn't fail with error messages, they just returned nothing (in most cases). thoughts? rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
