Right now, it does not work, but I don't know what is the point of failure. Upstairs (the Linux-only box) my /etc/exports file looks like this: /home/kevin/k-shared/ *(rw,root_squash,sync) /home/kevin/Documents/ *(rw,root_squash,sync) /home/kevin/downloads/ *(rw,root_squash,sync) /windows/ *(rw,root_squash,sync) /home/mywife/ *(rw,root_squash,sync) /media/ *(rw,root_squash,sync)
Try replacing the '*' with your ip_range/netmask and I think you will find it will work. i.e. /home/kevin/k-shared/ 192.168.1.0/24(rw,root_squash,sync)
Alrighty, I tried that... and 192.168.0.0/24, with no joy. So I widened the scope to 192.168.0.0/16, which still didn't work. (Restarting each time, then running to the other machine and attempting to setup the Client and have it scan for NFS servers on the little net........ nothing. So, it's not a matter of any of the particular shares being bad, or badly defined. The client is not finding *anything*. What's the next step? By the way, why did you suggest the IP? Isn't that the point of the "*" wildcard, to cover all bases and not restrict where not necessary? Or have I got that wrong? kevin (lonely and unshared :-)
