That was my first attempt. But it seems NFS isn't fully compiled into the LM8.1 kernel. There is a module missing, i think its called nfsso.oxc something. In services it says NFS running, but, on going through all the help people gave me earlier, it wouldn't run fully, just kept telling me a module was missing, and i'm in a situation where i can't shut down the machine. All the students using the shares are female. Now, anybody want to say no to 40 very stressed females.
