This computer is running F11. I have two NFS fileservers that are automatically mounted on this computer when it's booted up. One is named jeff and the other is named fileserver, and they are mounted at /mnt/jeff and /mnt/fileserver. Here is the relevant portion of /etc/fstab on this computer: fileserver:/nas/NASDisk-00002/files/ /mnt/fileserver nfs defaults 0 0 jeff:/ /mnt/jeff nfs defaults 0 0 jeff runs Centos 5. [frankcox@mutt ~]$ cat /mnt/jeff/etc/exports / 192.168.0.3(rw,no_root_squash) [frankcox@mutt ~]$ ls /mnt/jeff bin dev home lib64 media mnt opt root selinux sys usr boot etc lib lost+found misc net proc sbin srv tmp var In short, as long as the nfs service is running on the fileserver, your /etc/exports file is correct and your firewall is set up correctly (I already posted my note about how to do that) then it should work. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Melville Sask ~ http://www.melvilletheatre.com -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
