i have downloaded nfs-utils and installed it. i can get the rpc's to run manually, but i would like to put them in the startup scripts.
the problem is, i don't know which script to edit. there are so many. i see that there are sample scripts in the nfs-utils, and have found docs about debian using rc?.d, but still need further assistance. and now the stupid question: why aren't nfs, the rpcs, and the startup scripts at least an option during the installation? i understand that some people may not want these daemons running, but it should be offered during the installation just as samba is offered. thank you for explaining things to me slowly since i am still new to debian. // timothy
