If you're serious about mounting your Psion you could try checking if you have NFS support built into the kernel. I remember being unable to mount my Psion after one kernel recompilation that had me aggressively removing modules I felt I didn't need. Anyway try this check: grep -i nfs /boot/config-* CONFIG_NFS_FS=m CONFIG_NFS_V3=y Also, to ask the obvious, are you trying /usr/sbin/plpnfsd as root? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
