When the user is finished providing these informations, he/she wants to mount the shared directories which are available in the network (provided by the Server). But because YaST does not modify the file /etc/fstab automatically, a failure message pops up during the mount process "shares cannot be mounted from /etc/fstab" or similar. So the user additionally needs to modify the /etc/fstab file manually, despite he already has provided all the necessary information for that in YaST while setting up the NFS client. Please make YaST to do this work for the user automatically! Thanks! Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. setting up the server, specifying all shared directories 2. setting up the client, in YaST, failure message 3. modifying /etc/fstab (slightly grumpy...) Actual Results: see description Expected Results: setting up a NFS client in YaST and after finishing it, it should work without flaws and problems. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
