No idea how else to do it :) The entries copied from fstab are: 192.168.1.10:/home/username /home/quentinj/NFS/username nfs defaults 0 0 192.168.1.10:/mnt/data1/Video /home/quentinj/NFS/Video nfs defaults 0 0 192.168.1.10:/mnt/data1/Audio /home/quentinj/NFS/Audio nfs defaults 0 0 192.168.1.10:/mnt/data1/MyPics /home/quentinj/NFS/MyPics nfs defaults 0 0 Hadn't heard of the bg option before, should that be added so that YaST adds it automatically here or does it cause other side effects? I have never knowingly used UDP or TCP specifically for NFS and I don't have the 10.3 any more sorry, though I would install it if I wasn't so scared I'd get burnt by the beta 1 grub problem that I was lucky to get around! :) What I do know is that there were quite a few new problems with NFS in OpenSuSE 11.0 and to date I still turn off NFS 4 options as I cannot get a connection with them, so I still find the NFS stuff suspicious. I also notice interesting behaviour with the network manager in that nowadays it maintains 2 simultaneous connections rather than switching between the two and I don't think it updates the correct route to send traffic through. Wireless doesn't even work for me since beta 1 so I can't test it any longer anyway. I just tried replicating the unplugging of the NIC card and the PC didn't crash, it used to on 11.0 (a seperate machine I've got) so I guess that's been fixed via network update. Looking forward no one is going to set up a vpn to get NFS working sorry. The suggestion higher up to have network manager unmount and remount sounds more doable though. Hey, windows can do it, Linux should be able to do it much easier! ;) -- 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.
